Description
A new translation of Euripides' Cyclops brings to life this unique and fascinating ancient Greek play. In it, the story of Odysseus' encounter with Polyphemus is retold through the eyes of Silenus, the elderly leader of the satyrs who have been enslaved by the one-eyed giant. The play follows a well-known mythological theme, with the satyrs forming the chorus and providing much of the humour. The story reaches its traditional conclusion, as Odysseus escapes with his crew, accompanied by Silenus and his companions. This translation offers a fresh perspective on an ancient tale that remains both entertaining and thought-provoking. With 82 pages of text, this paperback edition provides a concise introduction to Euripides' work.
