Antigone A New Translation

The most celebrated plays of ancient Athens--Sophocles''s seven surviving works--in vivid and dynamic new translations. ANTIGONE, translated by award-winning poet Robert Bagg, is one of seven plays Harper Perennial has published as beautifully designed, stand-alone editions. Powerfully portraying the clash between civic and familial duty--between morality and obedience-- Antigone brings the Oedipus Cycle to a conclusion with the story of the tragic hero''s eldest daughter Antigone, who courts her own death by defying the edict of Thebes''s new ruler, her uncle Kreon, which forbids giving her dishonored brother a proper burial. This is Sophocles, vibrant and alive, for a new generation.
