Publisher's Synopsis
The Dramas of Aeschylus is a collection of plays written by the Greek playwright Aeschylus, originally published in 1890. The book includes seven of Aeschylus' most famous works, including Agamemnon, The Libation Bearers, and The Eumenides. These plays are considered some of the earliest examples of Greek tragedy, exploring themes of fate, justice, and the complexities of human relationships. The book is a valuable resource for scholars of ancient Greek literature and theater, as well as anyone interested in the origins of drama and storytelling. The translation is by E. D. A. Morshead, who sought to capture the poetic language and rich imagery of the original Greek texts. With its vivid characters, powerful themes, and timeless relevance, The Dramas of Aeschylus remains a classic of Western literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
