A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur :

Sophocles (497- 496 BC), the son of Sophilus, was a wealthy member of the small community of Colonus Hippius in Attica. As with many famous men in classical antiquity, his death inspired a number of apocryphal stories. The most famous is the suggestion that he died from the strain of trying to recite a long sentence from his Antigone without pausing to take a breath. Another account suggests he choked while eating grapes at the Anthesteria festival in Athens. A third holds that he died of happiness after winning his final victory at the City Dionysia.

Revue de presse :

'Mrs Easterling has written a work which is marked by tact, clarity and balanced judgement. It is an edition which could be profitably consulted at different levels, but it should be particularly helpful to students.' The Joint Association of Classical Teachers Bulletin
