Excerpt from The Tragedies of Euripides, Vol. 1 of 3: In English Verse Moral reflections. It does seem strange that the singers who during the present century have enriched English poetry with wealth of metrical variety lavish beyond all precedent, should have lived in vain for the translator of the Greek drama, especially since those magnificent notes of chorus-music were struck by the author Of Atalanta in Calydon and Erechtheus, after which the good Old Pindaric - Ode pattern, with its guilelessly capricious alternations of longs and shorts, seems curiously out Of date.

Outstanding translations of five plays, now updated with informative new content for students, teachers, and lovers of the classics. Greek Tragedies, Volume I contains: Aeschylus’s “Agamemnon,” translated by Richmond Lattimore Aeschylus’s “Prometheus Bound,” translated by David Grene Sophocles’s “Oedipus the King,” translated by David Grene Sophocles’s “Antigone,” translated by Elizabeth Wyckoff Euripides’s “Hippolytus,” translated by David Grene. Sixty years ago, the University of Chicago Press undertook a momentous project: a new translation of the Greek tragedies that would be the ultimate resource for teachers, students, and readers. They succeeded. Under the expert management of eminent classicists David Grene and Richmond Lattimore, those translations combined accuracy, poetic immediacy, and clarity of presentation to render the surviving masterpieces of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides in an English so lively and compelling that they remain the standard translations. In this highly anticipated third edition, Mark Griffith and Glenn W. Most have carefully updated the translations to bring them even closer to the ancient Greek while retaining the vibrancy they the for which our English versions are famous. New introductions for each play offer essential information about its first production, plot, and reception in antiquity and beyond. Each volume 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. In addition to the new content, the volumes have been reorganized both within and between volumes to reflect the most up-to-date scholarship on the order in which the plays were originally written. The result is a collection destined to introduce new generations of readers to these foundational works of Western drama, art, and life.
