The Complete Greek Tragedies – Usado

These translations of the tragedies of Aeschylus, belong to our time, as Warren D. Anderson writes, ”A keen poetic sensibility repeatedly quickens them; and without this inner fire the most academically flawless rendering is dead”

Aeschylus, son of Euphorion, was born in the last quarter of the sixth century B.C., enough time to write more than seventy plays, of which seven have survived. This volume includes the Oresteia (Agamenmon, The Libation Bearers and The Eumenides)
