Opis

This study undertakes to provide the reader with a new edition of Euripides' Ion and a commentary that elucidates the play as a self-contained text and a sophisticated and dramaturgically effective construct. It helps the reader understand what the Greek text means on the literal level, and how the characters act in word and deed, how their actions have been arranged by the poet in a way so that they form a coherent and stringent plot.

Recenzje

"This is a most important edition and commentary [...] The Commentary is of exemplary quality [...] It goes without saying that this outstanding Edition and Commentary will find its use at, and not below, the level of graduate seminars: indeed, it will surely become the standard edition for many years to come. As always with De Gruyter, production values are impeccable."
