Editorial Reviews
Review
"The translation is clear and conveys well the sense of the original Greek. I much prefer it to the others that are currently available. The introduction gives a good demonstration of the problems of interpretation critics of the play encounter. The notes are very clear and should be helpful to the Greekless reader."--Patricia P. Matsen, University of South Carolina
"One can savour these beautiful individual editions."--John Dillon, Hermathena-Trinity College/Dublin
"Skillfully represented."--Bernard Bredley, Kings College, London
"Well edited, priced right."--Edna L. Steeves, University of Rhode Island
Product Description
Among the legends of ancient Greece, there is perhaps no story more compelling than that of Helen. Her surpassing beauty was said to have launched the Greek fleet of a thousand ships to Troy. No woman was so adored and so hated. She was seen as both prize and scapegoat, the promise of bliss and the assurance of doom.
