Description
Euripides's Medea is a powerful and enduring work of Greek tragedy. This new translation by Oliver Taplin brings to life the story of a wronged wife who seeks revenge against her unfaithful husband, with devastating consequences for their children. Taplin's brilliant rendition replicates the musicality and strength of Euripides's verse while retaining the play's dramatic and emotional impact. The result is an edition that is particularly suited to performance, yet still holds the power it has long held as an object of reading or study. This new translation is poised to become a standard for performances and studies of Greek tragedy, introducing a new generation of readers to the heights and depths of Euripides's work.
