Book Description
Sophocles' Ajax describes the fall of a mighty warrior denied the honour which

critical apparatus which take full advantage of recent advances in our
understanding of Sophoclean manuscripts and scholarship. The introduction and

analysis of style, language and metre to consideration of wider issues such as

including the staging of Ajax's suicide, receive particular attention; so too do
questions of literary history, such as the date of the play and Sophocles'
creative interaction with previous
