Book Description:

Edwards's accessible edition of Alcestis was inspired by his belief that everyone should have the opportunity to learn. This, Euripides' earliest play, defies categorisation and is popular with scholars because of its mixture of legend, folklore, and fairy tale, as well as for what it reveals about ancient Greek values.
