9781853997105: The Imagery of Euripides: A Study in the Dramatic Use of Pictorial Language (BCPaperbacks)

Synopsis

These are paperback editions of important works on Greek and Roman literature, history, philosophy and archaeology. New introductions bring the works up to date in the light of more recent scholarship. In "The Imagery of Euripides," Shirley Barlow demonstrates, by a close analysis of Euripides' use of language and of imagery in particular, that his imaginative powers differ in kind, not just in quality, from those of Aeschylus and Sophocles, and that they serve a different purpose in the structure of the plays. This third edition includes a substantial new foreword by the eminent classical scholar Froma I. Zeitlin and substantial new introduction by the author. This classic study should have a place on the shelf of every student of Greek tragedy.

Review

"'A sound, sensitive, fluently written piece of research which opens up new territory in the area of European stylistic studies' D van Nes, Mnemosyne 'No one could fail to profit from Dr Barlow's sympathetic analysis of Euripides' imagery' Greece and Rome 'Not least of its merits is that the book can be read with profit by students of literature and drama as well as specialists. They will all find rewards.' --Times Literary Supplement
