Aris & Phillips. Very Good. 2001. Softcover. 0856687413 . Very light shelfwear. Scholars' bookplate to inner cover. Light wear to corners. ; Classical Texts; 240 pages; The Children of Heracles is a powerful and challenging tragedy of exile and supplication. Driven from their homeland by Eurystheus King of Argos the children of Heracles flee as fugitives throughout Greece until they are granted protection in Athens. However their acceptance as political refugees threatens to cause civil revolt among the Athenians and hostile invasion from the Argives. The self-sacrifice of Heracles' daughter ensures a victory for Athens and the Heraclidae but Heracles' mother Alcmene refuses to spare the life of Eurystheus altlhough he is a prisoner of war protected by Athenian law. The play shows the amorality of the powerful and the vulnerability of refugees in the most disturbing terms making for a drama of continuing moral and political relevance to the modern world. .

Aris & Phillips. Very Good. 1991. Softcover. 0856682373 . Light bump to base of spine. Light wear to corners. ; The Plays of Euripides; 224 pages; Hecuba in slavery after Troy's fall fails to dissuade Odysseus whose life she once saved from sacrificing her daughter to honour his dead friend Achilles; but the girl dies proudly true to her royal blood in surmounting degradation. Then Hecuba learns of her sons' treacherous murder by a former ally; out of her terrible loss comes determination for revenge which she claims as a right but how just is her horrific cruelty How credible against her earlier characterisation The play has striking effects: the ghost of the murdered son and his murderer subsequently blinded; poignant lyricism; vivid narratives; above all a careful pattern of scenes demonstrating the equivocal power of 'Persuasion man's only sovereign' v.816. Hecuba is both a study of resilience and weakness and a typically Euripidean comment on the uncertain even collapsing values of his time. Text with facing translation commentary and notes.

Very minor shelfwear. ; Cambridge Classical Texts and Commentaries 12; 256 pages; The surviving text of the fragmentary Phaethon of Euripides depends chiefly on two sources: two pages from a Euripidean manuscript written about A.D. 500 and a papyrus of the third century B.C. which contains a substantial part of the parodos. These sources are supplemented by a number of citations in classical authors and by a recently published fragmentary hypothesis. Professor Diggle has examined all the manuscript evidence and offers many decipherments. He gives a text of the play and of the hypothesis an exegetical commentary prolegomena and appendices in which he discusses the treatment of the Phaethon myth in classical literature and attempts a reconstruction of the plot of the play. .
