Description
Aeschylus' Oresteia is presented in this dual language edition, featuring the Greek text alongside a parallel verse translation by Ian Johnston. This volume provides a unique opportunity to engage with both the original Greek and its English equivalent, making it an ideal choice for those who wish to compare and contrast the two.
The three plays of Oresteia - Agamemnon, Libation Bearers, and Eumenides - are presented together in this edition, edited by Herbert Weir Smyth. The combination of Greek text and English translation allows readers to appreciate the nuances of Aeschylus' work while also gaining insight into its historical context.
