Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an extensive edition of the fragments of Sophocles' plays, some of which survived in their entirety and many of which are lost. The book is split into two volumes: the first volume includes an introduction, texts and notes; the second volume presents a lexicon of Sophoclean usage for anyone who may attempt further research in the sphere of tragic vocabulary and grammar. In the first volume, the author discusses the literary history of Sophoclean tragedy, estimates the extent and variety of its activity, discovers the vestiges of the material with which it worked, and shows how its monuments were transmitted to posterity until they passed into oblivion and how finally its scanty relics were preserved for the instruction of our own times. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
