More about the book

Sophocles' collection features four significant plays that explore themes of fate, neglect, revenge, and resilience. "Ajax" delves into the aftermath of the Trojan War for its titular character, while "The Trachinian Maidens" highlights the struggles of Deianeira, wife of Hercules. "Electra" centers on a daughter's quest for vengeance following her father's murder, and "Philoctetes" chronicles the trials of a unique hero. This volume showcases Sophocles' enduring impact on classical drama, presented in Lewis Campbell's verse translations on premium paper.
