Review

'The fifteen authors bring a stimulating variety of approach to their subjects ... with this series of commentaries now complete, and triumphantly so, there will surely be neither likelihood nor need of more for many years to come.' Greece and Rome

'All the contributions are well written ... and all are worth reading ... the book fulfils its intention, offering a representative selection of articles on the tragedians.' E.M. Craik, University of St Andrews, The Classical Review, Vol. XLIV, No. 1, 1994
