The Prometheus Bound of Aeschylus is a classic play written by the ancient Greek playwright Aeschylus, which was first performed in Athens in the 5th century BCE. The play tells the story of Prometheus, a Titan who defies the gods and gives fire to humanity, for which he is punished by Zeus by being chained to a rock and having his liver eaten by an eagle every day. The play explores themes of rebellion, punishment, and the struggle between free will and fate. This edition of the play, published in 1883, includes a translation by G.M. Cookson and an introduction by the scholar T.W. Rolleston. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Greek mythology, ancient drama, or the history of Western literature.With Notes And An Introduction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
