Title: Great selection, antiquated translations
Review: I considered assigning this book in a high school Advanced Placement Literature class because the selection of plays is a perfect introduction to Greek drama, but I decided against inflicting it on students because most of the plays are translated into very awkward faux-Elizabethan English, making them nearly impenetrable for the uninitiated.Is there no publisher out there who will create an affordable anthology of Greek plays in modern translations?
Is the review positive or negative?
