It was\u003cbr\u003efirst produced in 415 BC just after the Athenians slaughter of the male\u003cbr\u003epopulation of Melos and at the point where they were sending out the\u003cbr\u003eambitious Sicilian expedition. It therefore has major contemporary\u003cbr\u003epolitical significance. Like Aeschylus Eumenides, it was performed as\u003cbr\u003ethe third play in a thematically linked trilogy and, though the other\u003cbr\u003etwo plays survive only in fragments, important inferences can be drawn\u003cbr\u003eabout our interpretation of the surviving play and Euripides use of the\u003cbr\u003etrilogy form. Lee s edition, first published in the famous \"red\u003cbr\u003eMacmillan\" series in 1976, is the most recent scholarly edition in\u003cbr\u003eEnglish. The detailed commentary discusses text, language, \u003cbr\u003einterpretation and metre; there is a full introduction and for this\u003cbr\u003epaperback edition Lee has added an up-to-date bibliography.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Euripedes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1853991864\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781853991868\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 268\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.24h x 5.05w x 0.83d","brand":"Euripedes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48113743495423,"sku":"9781853991868","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a71ac658-16c6-4bd1-9be3-e7f4fe1c3d6b.jpg?v=1769617026","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/euripides-euripedes-9781853991868","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
