Cyclops. Alcestis. Medea pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
Euripides of Athens (ca. 485–406 BCE), famous in every age for the pathos, terror, surprising plot twists, and intellectual probing of his dramatic creations, wrote nearly ninety plays. Of these, eighteen (plus a play of unknown authorship mistakenly included with his works) have come down to us from antiquity. In this first volume of a new Loeb edition of Euripides David Kovacs gives us a freshly edited Greek text of three plays and an accurate and graceful translation with explanatory notes.
Alcestis is the story of a woman who agrees, in order to save her husband's life, to die in his place. Medea is a tragedy of revenge in which Medea kills her own children, as well as their father's new wife, to punish him for his desertion. The volume begins with Cyclops, a satyr play—the only complete example of this genre to survive. Each play is preceded by an introduction.
In a general introduction Kovacs demonstrates that the biographical tradition about Euripides—parts of which view him as a subverter of morality, religion, and art—cannot be relied on. He argues that this tradition has often furnished the unacknowledged starting point for interpretation, and that the way is now clear for an unprejudiced consideration of the plays themselves.

新版的英译很准确,初学者对照原文的话,可以译得更直一些。而初版的古英语译风显然有意紧贴古希腊文的语序,同时保持英文表达的平衡,读来颇为古雅。

评分Cyclops 和 Alcestis两篇不算严格的悲剧,相反却颇为幽默。重读Medea,仍然震撼,被怒火燃烧的Medea不再是个女人,甚至不能算是人,只是复仇之魂,但一个复仇之魂为什么要寻找雅典的庇护呢?另外,亚里士多德对悲剧形式的概括适用于Medea吗?
