Sophocles: Antigone (Cambridge Greek and Latin Classics)by Sophocles
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:In this new edition of Sophocles' tragedy Antigone, Mark Griffith combines sophisticated literary and cultural interpretation with close attention to language, meter, and issues of performance, and thus makes the play more fully available to readers of Greek than ever before. The introduction requires no knowledge of Greek and will interest all students of drama and literature. Review:"Griffith's excellent new annotated edition of one of the more widely read Athenian tragedies deserves a place in any collection of ancient Greek text. This volume will prove useful to advanced scholars familiar with the play's interpretive challenges as well as to Greek students encountering the text for the first time...The commentary itself is detailed and thorough, with ample coverage of lexical, grammatical, and textual matter, first-rate metrical analysis, illuminating discussion of relevent historical, cultural, and literary background information, and judicious open-minded interpretation." Religious Studies Review Jan 2002 Review:"Mark Griffith has once again produced an outstanding addition to the Cambridge Greek and Latin Classics." Geoff Bakewell, Creighton University"The commentary is carefully cross-referenced and handsomely produced...This is an Antigone for our time which bids fair to last as long as Jebb's."
