More about the book

The collection features Sophocles' pivotal "Theban" plays, highlighting themes of familial duty, fate, and moral conflict. "Antigone" portrays a strong heroine defying royal authority for her family, while "Oedipus the King" explores the tragic consequences of prophecy and exile. In "Oedipus at Colonus," the aged Oedipus navigates the rivalries of Athens and Thebes as he seeks a final resting place. Renowned for their profound impact on modern drama, these tragedies are presented with Francis Storr's translations and introductions by R. C. Jebb.
