In the third edition of The Complete Greek Tragedies, Mark Griffith and Glenn W.Most have carefully updated the translations to bring them even closer to the ancient Greek while retaining the vibrancy for which the Grene and Lattimore versions are famous. New introductions for each play offer essential Information about its first production, plot and reception in antiquity and beyond. Each volume also includes an introduction to the life and work of its tragedian, as well as notes addressing textual uncertainties and a glossary of names and places mentioned in the plays. The result is a set of handsome volumes destined to introduce new generations of readers to those foundational works of Western drama, art, and life.
