The Trojan Women of Euripides is a classic Greek tragedy that centers around the aftermath of the Trojan War. The play follows the fate of the women of Troy, who have been captured and enslaved by the victorious Greeks. The story is told through the eyes of Hecuba, the former queen of Troy, and her fellow captives, including her daughter Cassandra and Andromache, the wife of Hector. The women are forced to confront the harsh realities of their new lives as they face the prospect of being sold into slavery or forced to marry their captors. The play explores themes of war, loss, and the human cost of conflict. Murray's translation of the play is widely regarded as one of the finest English versions of the text, capturing the beauty and power of Euripides' original work. This edition also includes an introduction and notes by Murray, providing readers with a deeper understanding of the play's historical and cultural context.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
