Bacchae
Editorial Reviews
Mary-Kay Gamel, University of California, Santa Cruz
"An excellent translation which captures Bacchae's combination of colloquial and lyric language. The Notes and Introduction are also very helpful."
Charles Segal, Harvard University
[Woodruff's translation] is clear, fluent, and vigorous, well thought out, readable and forceful. The rhythms are right, ever present but not too insistent or obvious. it can be spoken instead of read and so is viable as an acting version: and it keeps the lines of the plot well focused. The Introduction offers a good survey of critical approaches. The notes at the foot of the page are suitably brief and non-intrusive and give basic information for the non-specialist.
