Euripides, "Alexandros"

This is the first full-scale commentary on Euripides’ Alexandros, one of the best preserved fragmentary tragedies. It yields insight into Euripidean style, ideology, rhetoric and dramaturgy, as well as into philological matters, on the basis of a re-inspection of the papyrus fragments. This book offers a reconstruction of the play and delves into issues of characterization, staging, transmission and the fascinating reception of this tragedy.?????
