Antigone

Sophocles

Translated by J. E. Thomas earliest edition we have, 1969 Prestwick House, Inc., 2005 paperback 80 pages

Cambridge translations from Greek drama

Publisher's description: Echoing through western culture for more than two millennia, Sophocles' play has been a touchstone of thinking about human conflict and human tragedy, the role of the divine in human life, and the degree to which men and women are the creators of their own destiny. This exciting new translation of the Antigone is both extremely faithful to the Greek and poetically striking and convincing.
