description: This is one of the seven plays of Sophocles in the full editions by R.C. Jebb. Each volume contains a foreword by P.E. Easterling, concerned with Jebb and his contribution to Sophoclean scholarship; there follows an introduction by a noted Sophoclean scholar dealing with Jebb’s treatment of the individual play and its value for--and contrast with--subsequent interpretations, for which a select bibliography is included.
