Professor Winnington-Ingram's reputation as an authority on Greek
drama is based on a lifetime's careful scholarship. In 1980 the
Press published Professor Winnington-Ingram's book on Sophocles and
in 1983 he followed it up with some studies on Aeschylus. This book
explores the problems in Aeschylus' earlier plays: Persae, Septem
contra Thebas and the Daniad trilogy. There is also an emphasis on
different aspects of the Oresteia and finally, an examination of
the peculiar problems in Prometheus Bound. A view of Aeschylean
tragedy emerges - and of the poet's contribution to the development
of Greek religious thought. Students of Greek drama will welcome
this collection. Greek in the body of the text is translated, so
that the book will be accessible to those studying Greek literature
in translation and the literature and drama of other cultures.
