The Bacchae is the last and greatest of Euripides' plays. Its theme
of the cost of resisting the gods who reside in human nature itself
is still of immediate interest to audiences and readers and has
inspired modern interpretations. Professor Kirk has made a
translation which is both accurate and readable. This he supports
with an analytic commentary and a substantial introductory essay
which provide the Greek-less reader with essential background
information and offer interpretation of a kind usually found only
in Greek editions. This is a translation for students of Greek
tragedy, particularly in courses on classics in translations or
classical civilisation. It will also be useful for students of
drama and of English and other literatures.
