Text in Greek, Commentary and notes are in English. vii, 160p., diagrams, plates, index. One of the most important scholarly studies of Euripides. Besides layout of ancient Greek text, there are photographic plates of the most ancient surviving manuscript. Here the papyrus discoveries in the Grenfell and Hunt Expedition (known as the Bodlian papyrus for the Euripides text) are illuminated bringing a sufficient rediscovery of the ancient text to illuminating the play. Bound in dark blue cloth, spine lettering gilt. A fine bright copy in unclipped light blue dust jacket printed and decorated in brown, some fading to spin and edges. A very nice copy.
