Andromache, written in the early years of the Peloponnesian War,
shows the effects of war on the conquerors and the conquered. The
other main theme is the role and nature of women, explored through
the conflict between the contrasting figures of Andromache and
Hermione. The play has a bold and original structure, which finds
room for paranoia, nymphomania, racialism, blackmail, treachery,
mental breakdown, elopement and revenge. The climax is a messenger
speech describing the lynching of Neoptolemus in the Temple of
Apollo at Delphi. Greek text with facing-page English translation,
introduction and commentary. This second edition incorporates some
corrections, and has also been significantly expanded and updated.
