Sophocle

Broschiertes Buch

Oedipe À Colone

Beschreibung

"Oedipus at Colonus" follows "Oedipus Rex" and "Antigone" in the trilogy of Greek dramas about the king of Thebes and his unhappy family. David Mulroy's translation combines scrupulous scholarship and textual accuracy with a fresh verse style, and his introduction and notes deepen the reader's understanding of the play and the politics of Sophocles' Athens.

Autor

Sophocles (ca. 497/6 B.C.E.-407/6 B.C.E.) was the most acclaimed dramatist of his era, winning more than twenty festival competitions in ancient Athens. He is believed to have written 123 plays, but only seven have survived in complete form. His life spanned the rise and fall of the Athenian Empire. David Mulroy is a professor emeritus of classics at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. His translations of "Oedipus Rex," "Antigone," and "The Complete Poetry of Catullus" are also published by the University of Wisconsin Press.
