From the Publisher
The Bakkhai offers a rich and revealing introduction to ancient Greek tragedy a remarkably appropriate alternative to Sophocles' Oedipus the King. Meagher's edition features: - A lively and extremely actable English translation that is true to the word and spirit of the ancient original - A Preface on the purpose and challenge of this translation - Commentary on Euripides and the play. Meagher's Bakkhai is an illuminating, attractive, and affordable presentation for the general reader, the college student, the director and performer alike.
From the Author
Some works of art, under scrutiny, confess their finitude, while others do not. True to Dionysos, its divine protagonist, the Bakkhai is fluid, elusive, and contemptuous of any effort to pin it to a board like a butterfly spread for labeling. The Bakkhai is all about possession, not our possessing it but its possessing us, its translators, directors, critics and students. From the Author's Commentary.
