The Heroic Muse. Studies in the Hippolytus and Hecuba of Euripides. - KOVACS, D.,

KORTE INHOUD

'There is much in his analyses of the plays, that betrays a sensitivity to detail and nuance and thus makes stimulating reading. (...) To Kovacs Euripides is not the idiosyncratic sophist but a playwright who operates within the traditions of the genre, a producer of dramas consistent within themselves, not one concerned to protray weird states of mind. Inevitably there are aspects of the author's analysis that inspire disagreement - by his own words he expects as much - but there is much also that is thought-provoking and provides new insights that should not be missed.' (S. IRELAND in The Classical Review (New Series), 1988, p.208-09). From the library of the late Prof. W. Geoffrey Arnott.
