About this title

Review

'I recommend the thoughtful introduction ... and laud the outrageous blend of hardest core philology and good humour that makes every page a joy to read. Dr Dawe has a merciless eye for nonsense in scholarly writing and an uncanny ability to turn a tragic Gestalt into a casual acquaintance.' William M. Calder III, The Classical Journal

Book Description

Dr Dawe examines Sophocles' Oedipus Rex through the content of the story, the techniques employed by Sophocles in the unfolding of the plot and the analysis of the problems of language and expression. This edition is useful to classical scholars, undergraduates, students in the upper forms of schools and the introduction is for anyone interested in Greek literature and drama.
