Oresteia

Author

Aeschylus

Description

Meineck’s translation is faithful and supple; the language employed is modern without betraying the grandeur and complexity–particularly the images–of the Aeschylean text. After reading this translation, one has but one further wish: to see it and hear it at Delphi, Epidaurus or Syracuse. –Herman Van Looy, L’Antiquite Classique
