This is the first substantial study of Greek tragedies known to us
only from small fragmentary remnants that have survived. The book
discusses a variety of Greek tragic fragments from all three of the
famous Athenian tragedians: Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides. The
recent publication of translations of some of these fragments
(Sophocles in the Loeb series, and Euripides in the Aris and
Phillips series) means that the fragments are now more readily
available than ever for study. The large number of extant fragments
of ancient Greek tragedy can tell us enormous amounts about that
genre and about the society which produced it. Papyrus finds over
the last hundred years have drastically altered and supplemented
our knowledge of ancient Greek tragedy; the book is at the
cutting-edge of research in this field.
