Harvard Classics Volume 8 by TS Eliot
Nine Greek Dramas
A curated selection of nine classical Greek plays, both tragedies and comedies, traces the downfall of proud households, the clash between divine decree and human will, and the tensions between private loyalty and civic law, while also lampooning intellectual fashions and political life; together, these works illuminate the foundations of Western drama through stark portrayals of vengeance, sacrifice, and moral responsibility alongside sharp-witted satire.
