Landmark of Western drama concerns the catastrophe that ensues when King Oedipus discovers he has inadvertenly killed his father and married his mother.
Review:
"Sir Hugh is providing, that is, what Nabokov, in rendering "Eugene Onegin", called a metaphrase--a scrupulous, bare explanation of the original...Plainspun prose indeed, but attractively diaphanous. We can be pretty sure that these were the exact lexical intentions of Sophocles...Reading the seven Sophocles plays in the new Loeb version only confirms his impenetrable greatness."
David Lyons, New Criterion
Review:"As for many translations of Greek Tragedy, this book will doubtless find its greatest readership among students....In this respect, "Aias" is an easy choice--clear, cogent, and readable. However, it would be a shame if ONLY students picked up this volume..."
Thomas Jenkins, Boston Book Review, April 1999
