One of Sophocles' more accomplished dramas, the Electra has always
generated a good deal of scholarly debate. This 2007 edition, the
first full-scale commentary on any play of Sophocles since the
nineteenth century, explores afresh long-standing controversies
such as the moral status of the killing of Clytemnestra, while also
investigating many subjects which have traditionally attracted less
attention, such as the place of rhetoric within the drama, the use
of typical scenes, and allusions to epinician poetry. It provides
original metrical analyses of the lyrical sections of the play and
a revised Greek text. Research on the papyri, mediaeval manuscripts
and printed editions has led to a more accurate apparatus criticus
than ever before, with many conjectures attributed to their
rightful owners.
