Beskrivning
In this new translation of Euripides' celebrated Greek tragedy, W.S. Merwin and George E. Dimock, Jr. offer a compelling look at the devastating consequence of `man's inhumanity to man'.A stern critique of Greek culture, Iphigeneia at Aulis condemns the Trojan War by depicting the power of political ambition and the ensuing repercussions of thoughtlessly falling to the will of constituency. The translation impressively re-creates the broad array of moral and emotional tones conveyed by Euripides, with a comprehensive introduction, notes on the text, and a glossary of mythical and geographical terms.

Recensioner i media

"Wonderful edition."--Professor Coni Maniels, University of Hawaii at Manoa"The translation is clear and conveys well the sense of Euripides' intent. The introduction gives an up-to-date evaluation of the play. The notes should be very helpful to the Greekless reader. The glossary at the end of this and the other volumes in the series are excellent as a guide to the mythless reader."--Patricia P. Matsen, University of South Carolina"A very accessible translation of a wonderful story. The glossary is very useful."--Karen E. Stohr, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill"Very well edited, and priced right."--Edna L. Steeves, University of Rhode Island
