Sophocles' Tragic World by Charles Segal
This work focuses not on the heroic figures of Sophocles's dramas, but on the world that inspired and motivated their actions. The author studies five of Sophocles's seven extant plays: "Ajax", "Oedipus Tyrranus", "Philoctetes", "Antigone" and "Trachinian Women".
