Creative rhetoric in Euripides’ Troades
Euripides' Troades was a work not much studied until the end of World War II. Since then the play, and in particular the part played by Helen and the debate concerning her accountability for her elopement and its consequences, have not ceased to attract scholarly attention. The recent interest in the rhetoric of this agon has thrown additional light on the entire scene, the third and last episode of the play. The debate is occasioned by Menelaus’…
Euripides, Medea 639
Modern interpretation tends to take E. Med. 639, ‘driving from the senses over a second bed’ ( θυμ⋯ν ⋯κπλήξασ' ⋯τέροις ⋯π⋯ λέκτροις ), found within the petition of the chorus that ‘dread Cypris never...inflict angry arguments and insatiate quarrels’ (637–40a), as referring to a second bed that might allure these women themselves rather than one that might allure their husbands. None the less, the latter interpretation seems to be recommended by b…

Of the conjectures proposed till now only Jackson's isconsidered noteworthy by the latest editor of the play. Jackson, howeve…
Sophocles O.C . 217
The attribution of line 217 to Antigone seems never to have been questioned, and Hermann's emendation in 219 for the of the MSS.) has been generally accepted as ‘fitting, since Oedipus and Antigone have just been speaking together’ (Jebb ; alii similia ). However, the introduction of Antigone into this lyrical dialogue may result from misunderstanding the tenor of the scene. The passage in question is difficult in parts and the text frequently em…
