The Electra of Euripides - Translated into English rhyming verse

First Edition, November 1905 Reprinted, November 1906 " February 1908 " March 1910 " December 1910 " February 1913 " April 1914 " June 1916 " November 1919 " April 1921 " January 1923 " May 1925 " August 1927 " January 1929 The Electra of Euripides has the distinction of being, perhaps, the best abused, and, one might add, not the best understood, of ancient tragedies. "A singular monument of poetical, or rather unpoetical perversity;" "the very worst of all his pieces;" are, for instance, the phrases applied to it by Schlegel. Considering that he judged it by the standards of conventional classicism, he could scarcely have arrived at any different conclusion. For it is essentially, and perhaps consciously, a protest against those standards. So, indeed, is the tragedy of The Trojan Women; but on very different lines. The Electra has none of the imaginative splendour, the vastness, the intense poetry, of that wonderful work. It is a close-knit, powerful, well-constructed play, as realistic as the tragic conventions will allow, intellectual and rebellious. Its psychology reminds one of Browning, or even of Ibsen. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
