Description

The pseudo-Euripidean Rhesus is the only extant Greek tragedy based on an episode from Homer's Iliad and a unique witness for the history of the genre in the 4th century BC. This new edition, with introduction and commentary, discusses textual problems, language, metre and dramaturgy as well as the mythological and literary-historical background of the play. It is an indispensable aid for serious students of the text.
