What Our Customers Say...
Description
Leather Binding
In Latin and Greek.
Complete in three volumes.
A collection of the tragedies of Sophocles.
The most famous tragedies of Sophocles feature Oedipus and Antigone: they are generally known as the Theban plays, although each play was actually a part of a different tetralogy, the other members of which are now lost. Sophocles influenced the development of the drama, most importantly by adding a third actor, thereby reducing the importance of the chorus in the presentation of the plot. He also developed his characters to a greater extent than earlier playwrights such as Aeschylus.
Containing seven complete plays, with the other fragments of plays attributed to Sophocles.
