5.0 out of 5 stars wonderful for contemplating Sophocles' great creation, October 25, 2011
By 
I highly recommend this fascinating discussion of Oedipus Tyrannus - a book that can be read over and over with continuing interest. Every time I experience one of Segal's chapters, I come away with new thoughts. The historical/cultural setting is well described, and the intricacies of this extremely complex masterwork are discussed with enlightening insight. If you love the Oedipus Tyrannus, get this book!
