The Oedipus Plays of Sophocles: Oedipus the King, Oedipus at Kolonos, and Antigone

Bagg's translations of Euripides have been staged in over 60 productions in the US and abroad. His translation of Oedipus the King was first published in 1982, and here he adds the other two plays of the fifth-century BCE cycle narrating the destruction inflicted on Oedipus and his family, the royal house of Thebes. He provides substantial introductions and explanatory notes for each, as well as a general introduction to Greek theater in the time of Sophocles.
