Trachiniae Of Sophocles

The Trachiniae is one of the lesser-known plays of the ancient Greek playwright Sophocles, but it is no less powerful for its obscurity. The play tells the story of Deianeira, the wife of the hero Heracles, and her efforts to save her husband from a curse that threatens to destroy him. In this lively and engaging translation by Edward Philip Coleridge, readers will encounter the full force of Sophocles' vivid imagination and powerful storytelling.
