Helena

Helena

José Ribeiro Ferreira
0/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
Transcending the literal bounds of genre, Euripides' Helen has been characterized as both a comedy and a tragedy. In this evocative translation by James Michie and Colin Leach, Euripides' delicate balance - in all its subtlety of texture and tone - is beautifully captured.

The reader encounters myriad reversals, worlds - real/ideal, tragic/comic - surprisingly juxtaposed and, as in any story of Helen, the pathos of the impossible, all allowing Euripides to comment of the futility of war and the difficult distinction between appearance and reality.

Originally written in 412BC.
