    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    This anthology includes four translations of the Athenian tragedian, Euripides. "Cyclops" is a satyr play, one of the oldest forms of drama, whilst "Hecuba", "Iphigenia at Aulis" and "The Women of Troy" centre on the Trojan War and the horrors of mental and physical contact.

    Long description:

    Published in the new Methuen Classical Dramatists series



    Euripides' searching, poetic voice probes the waste and suffering of war in these plays which are set wake of the Trojan defeat to reflect the playwright's changing attitude to the real war between Athens and Sparta in his own day - 4th century BC. Hecuba is a play of ghosts and shadowy death; The Women of Troy is a searing indictment of the aftermath of defeat; Iphigenia at Aulis shows a human tragedy at the heart of the mechanics of war; and Cyclops is a satyr play which offers a comic antidote to the tragedies.

    With an introduction by J. Michael Walton
