This is one of the seven plays of Sophocles in the full editions by R.C. Jebb, now reprinted in affordable paperback versions. In this set, each volume contains a foreword by P.E. Easterling, concerned with the editor and his contribution to Sophoclean scholarship; there follows an introduction by a noted Sophoclean scholar dealing with Jebb's treatment of the individual play and its value for - and contrast with - subsequent interpretations, for which a select bibliography is included.

This is an fine example of one of R.C. Jebb's respected editions of Sophocles' plays, originally appearing in the last years of the 19th century. He gives literary and dramatic interpretations and translations that face the Greek text.
