In this needed and highly anticipated new translation of the Theban plays of Sophocles, David Slavitt presents a fluid, accessible, and modern version for both newcomers to the plays and established admirers. Unpretentious and direct, Slavitt's translation preserves the innate verve and energy of the dramas, engaging the reader or audience member directly with Sophocles' great texts. Slavitt chooses to present the plays not in narrative sequence but in the order in which they were composed: "Antigone", "Oedipus Tyrannos", and "Oedipus at Colonus"; he thereby underscores the fact that the story of Oedipus is one to which Sophocles returned over the course of his lifetime. This arrangement also lays bare the record of Sophocles' intellectual and artistic development. Renowned as a poet and translator, Slavitt has translated "Ovid", "Virgil", "Aeschylus", "Aristophanes", "Ausonius", "Prudentius", "Valerius Flaccus", and "Bacchylides" as well as works in French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Hebrew. In this volume, he avoids personal intrusion on the texts and relies upon the theatrical machinery of the plays themselves. The result is a major contribution to the art of translation and a version of the Oedipus plays that will appeal enormously to readers, theatre directors, and actors.

评分一位素未蒙面的朋友昨晚来和我讨论《俄狄浦斯王的》的相关问题，她很客气地说是“请教”，但我也绝谈不上是“指导”，不过是互相的交流罢了。 这位朋友主要提到两个观点“无知即有罪”和“恶性中的无辜”，以及对于俄狄浦斯王最终刺瞎双眼之后的那部分故事的讨论...
