Women on the Edge by Ruby Blondell
Women on the Edge is an exciting exploration of women and their roles in the work of Euripides. The four of Euripides plays covered are Medea, Alcestis, Helen and Iphigenia at Aulis."I highly recommend this collection to anyone eager to encounter an innovative reading of Euripidean drama" -- Monica Silveira Cyrino, University of New Mexico TheatreJounral
"...in a class by itself... This would make a fine text for advanced students of literature in translation or women in antiquity." -- Classical Outlook
"This is not your grandfather's translation of Euripedes... Provides a good introduction to feminist readings of these plays, accessible translations, helpful background material, and openness about the translators' methods... A valuable addition to translations of Euripidean tragedy." -- Bryn Mawr Classical Review
