This volume collects Electra, a gripping story of revenge, manipulation, and the often tense conflict of the human spirit; Aias, an account of the heroic suicide of the Trojan war hero better known as Ajax; Philoctetes, a morally complex and penetrating play about the conflict between personal integrity and public duty; and The Women of Trachis, an urgent tale a mutability and uncertainty in a universe of precipitous change. The book retains the informative introductions and explanatory notes of the original editions and adds a single combined glossary and Greek line numbers.
