Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Phoenissae of Euripides: With Brief Notes The Phoenissae (Phoenician Women), in common with some others of the extant Greek Tragedies, was derived from ancient epics on the history of Thebes and the house of Laius, not less famous than the Troica, and equally with them attributed to Homer, and subsequently embodied in the Epic Cyclus. The Seven against Thebes and the Antigone occupy precisely the same ground, the fatal conflict between Eteocles and Polynices for the sovereignty of Thebes. To the former indeed not a few passages in the present drama evidently refer; as when the poet says (v. 751) that the names of the seven chiefs need not be given at length when the enemy are investing the city. Like the Orestes, this play (the longest extant) was very popular in the later Greek schools. Its varied action, chivalrous descriptions, and double messenger's narrative, first of the general fight between the contending armies, secondly (v. 1356), of the duel between the brothers and the suicide of Jocasta, give a sustained interest to a piece which extends to nearly twice the length of the corresponding Aeschylean drama.

Here, Peter Burian and Brian Swann recreate Euripides' The Phoenician Women, a play about the fateful history of the House of Laios following the tragic fall of Oedipus, King of Thebes. Their lively translation of this controversial play reveals the cohesion and taut organization of a complexdramatic work. Through the use of dramatic, fast-paced poetry--almost cinematic it its rapidity of tempo and metaphorical vividness--Burian and Swann capture the original spirit of Euripides' drama about the deeply and disturbingly ironic convergence of free will and fate. Presented with acritical introduction, stage directions, a glossary of mythical Greek names and terms, and a commentary on difficult passages, this edition of The Phoenician Women makes a controversial tragedy accessible to the modern reader.
