This volume offers the fruits of Peter Meineck and Paul Woodruff's
dynamic collaboration on the plays of Sophocles' Theban cycle,
presenting the translators' Oedipus Tyrannus (2000) along with
Woodruff's Antigone (2001) and a muscular new Oedipus at Colonus by
Meineck. Grippingly readable, all three translations combine
fidelity to the Greek with concision, clarity, and powerful,
hard-edged speech. Each play features foot-of-the-page notes, stage
directions, and line numbers to the Greek. Woodruff's Introduction
discusses the playwright, Athenian theatre and performance, the
composition of the plays, and the plots and characters of each; it
also offers thoughtful reflections on major critical
interpretations of these plays.
