Aeschylus’s Suppliant Women
This book offers a provocative interpretation of a relatively neglected tragedy, Aeschylus's Suppliant Women. Although the play's subject is a venerable myth, it frames the flight of the daughters of Danaus from Egypt to Greece starkly contemporary terms, emphasizing the encounter between newcomers and natives.
