The greatest of the Greek tragedians, Sophocles wrote over 120 plays, surpassing his older contemporary Aeschylus and the younger Euripides not only in the number of plays he wrote but also in the number of prizes awarded his works. Only the seven works in this volume have survived intact. This, the only one-volume paperback edition of Sophocles’ complete works, is a revised and modernized version of the famous Jebb translation, which Professor Hadas has called "the most carefully wrought prose version of Sophocles in English."
Published 1982.
Binding of the book is intact. Moderate shelfwear, some foxing, creasing and fraying on covers of book. Sticker on back cover. Heavy tanning and foxing on edges of book. Heavy foxing on insides of covers. Moderate foxing and few ink stains on certain pages.
