内容简介
Sixty years ago, the University of Chicago Press undertook a momentous project: a new translation of the Greek tragedies that would be the ultimate resource for teachers, students, and readers. They succeeded. Under the expert management of eminent classicists David Grene and Richmond Lattimore, those translations combined accuracy, poetic immediacy, and clarity of presentation to render the surviving masterpieces of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides in an English so lively and compelling that they remain the standard translations. Today, Chicago is taking pains to ensure that our Greek tragedies remain the leading English-language versions throughout the twenty-first century. In this highly anticipated third edition, Mark Griffith and Glenn W. Most have carefully updated the translations to bring them even closer to the ancient Greek while retaining the vibrancy for which our English versions are famous. This edition also includes brand-new translations of Euripides' "Medea", "The Children of Heracles", "Andromache", and "Iphigenia among the Taurians", fragments of lost plays by Aeschylus, and the surviving portion of Sophocles' satyr-drama "The Trackers". New introduction for each play offer essential information about its first production, plot, and reception in antiquity and beyond. In addition, each volume includes an introduction to the life and work of its tragedian, as well as notes addressing textual uncertainties and a glossary of names and places mentioned in the plays. In addition to the new content, the volumes have been reorganized both within and between volumes to reflect the most up-to-date scholarship on the order in which the plays were originally written. The result is a set of handsome paperbacks destined to introduce new generations of readers to these foundational works of Western drama, art, and life.
作者简介
欧里庇得斯（希腊语：Εὐριπίδης，前480年—前406年）与埃斯库罗斯和索福克勒斯并称为希腊三大悲剧大师，他一生共创作了九十二部作品，保留至今的有十八或十九部（《瑞索斯》是否确为欧里庇得斯的作品，存在争议）。对于欧里庇得斯的评价，古往今来一向褒贬不一，有人说他是最伟大的悲剧作家，也有人说悲剧在他的手中衰亡，无论这些评价如何反复，无庸置疑的是欧里庇得斯的作品对于后世的影响是深远的。 == 生平 == 欧里庇得斯出身于阿提卡一个贵族家庭，对各类艺术有过全面且系统的学习，他非常醉心于诗和哲学，并用年轻时得到一笔遗产在家里建了一个收藏丰富的私人藏书室。除非必要，欧里庇得斯很少出席公众场合的社交活动，他淡泊名利，拒绝了大部分希腊当局派给他的职务，但曾在很长一段时期内服兵役。 欧里庇得斯很早就开始尝试悲剧写作，前455年首次参加比赛，但那次的比赛很失败，他得了最后一名，观众在演出结束的时候向他的歌队扔垃圾。之后将近二十年里，欧里庇得斯很少动笔创作，在此期间，他对于自己和悲剧这门艺术有了更深的认识。
Euripides (; Ancient Greek: Eὐριπίδης, romanized: Eurīpídēs, pronounced [eu̯.riː.pí.dɛːs]; c. 480 – c. 406 BC) was a Greek tragedian of classical Athens. Along with Aeschylus and Sophocles, he is one of the three authors of Greek tragedy for whom any plays have survived in full. Some ancient scholars attributed ninety-five plays to him, but the Suda says it was ninety-two at most. Nineteen plays attributed to Euripides have survived more or less complete, although one of these (Rhesus) is often
