"The translation is clear and conveys well the sense of the original Greek. I much prefer it to the others that are currently available. The introduction gives a good demonstration of the problems of interpretation critics of the play encounter. The notes are very clear and should be helpful to the Greekless reader."--Patricia P. Matsen, University of South Carolina"One can savour these beautiful individual editions."--John Dillon, Hermathena-Trinity College/Dublin"Skillfully represented."--Bernard Bredley, Kings College, London"Well edited, priced right."--Edna L.
