Sophokles' Antigone is an ancient play that speaks directly to contemporary issues. From conflicts between authoritarian regimes and those who protest them to struggles over inequality and discrimination, students and general readers will find a touchstone in this classic work. The central questions of the play continue to resonate: What is the nature of justice? What is the place of civil disobedience in civil society? What is the proper exercise of power for those in authority? Extensive historical appendices, including selections from Plato, Herodotos, Aeschylus, and Euripides, provide cultural and literary contexts for these questions in ancient Greek society.
This Broadview Edition provides a readable new translation of Antigone along with helpful annotations, a comprehensive introduction to the play, and a general introduction to ancient Greek theatre.
