Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Agamemnon of Aeschylus: A Revised Text and a Translation I have prayed the Gods for respite from these toils through the length of my year's watch, while, bedded on the roof of the Atreidae, from my bended arm I watch like a dog the assem blage of the stars of night, those that bring winter and summer to mortals, bright lords gleaming in the sky, - the stars I mean, their settings and their risings. And now I am watch ing for the signal of the torch, the gleam of fire that is to bring news from Troy and tidings of her capture; for so commands a. Woman's manly counselling hopeful heart. But While I keep this night-wandering dewy bed, not visited by dreams, - this bed of mine, for fear is my companion in place of sleep, so that I cannot close my eyes steadily in slumber, - and when I please to sing or hum, taking this medicine of song to keep off sleep, then I weep, bewailing the calamitie'emof this house, which is not as of yore ordered for the best. And now I pray that a happy release from my toils may come, by the signal fire appearing with good tidings through the gloom of night.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Klytaimestra of the Agamemnon of Aeschylus Meanwhile, after Iphigeneia had been offered up, the Greeks obtained a favorable breeze; Agamemnon moved now against Trov as the commander of the expedition; but his queen, Klytaimestra, who remained at home in Argos, committed adultery with Aigisthus, another son of Thyestes, and together with him laid plans that she should slay her husband, upon his home'return from Troy. She gave orders that a look-out should be kept upon the palace-roof since that was agreed upon previously that when Troy had been sacked, a fire should be lighted and passed on from island to island across the Aegean Sea, so that the glad tidings should as speedily as possible be brought to Argos. The drama - Agamemnon begins, then, with the warder upon the palace-roof keeping watch, indulging in a fine, and edifying soliloquy. He is weary of continuously observing the heavens and the stars. may there come now, a welcome surcease from my pains, and may the fire of the night which brings the glad tidings.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The 'Agamemnon' of Aeschylus: With an Introduction, Commentary, and Translation This edition of the Agamemnon is the second instalment of that edition of Aeschylus which I hope to complete in course of time. The present volume has occupied me for many years, having been commenced long before my edition of the Septem, and frequently re-written, as I gained more knowledge of the poet. No one competent to undertake such a work can flatter himself much upon the little that he can possibly have achieved in comparison with the desirable ideal. It is not likely that, as long as there is any spirit of progress, there will ever be a final edition of Aeschylus. Certainly we are far enough from such a consummation at present. But with all the defects which I see, and the many which doubtless I do not see, I trust that this book is not unworthy of the place in which it has been written and of the great living scholars by whose teaching and encouragement it has been inspired. Where my version merely follows tradition, the commentary is for the most part silent or brief; and in this sense only I may say that the bulk of it is the product of my own work. But indeed I have the less hesitation in saying so, as I fear that the bulk of it is not a merit The English editions of Paley, Kennedy, and Mr A. Sidgwick have been by me throughout; Enger's I have consulted often. Dr Wecklein's interesting and useful edition of the Orestea with notes (1889) appeared when this was in the press.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Oresteia of Aeschylus: Agamemnon, Choephori, Eumenides The fragments of Aeschylus' s predecessors are too scanty to give us any clear idea of the debt he may have owed to them. But it seems probable that drama, as one of the supreme forms of art, was the creation of his own unique personal genius Within the limits of a short introduction no adequate account can be given of his art, or of its rela tions to the plays of his rivals and successors. I must confine myself to a few remarks upon the traditional drama tic forms which he inherited and developed, and upon my own methods of translation.

To these (few I fear) as to myself they may be welcome, as pleasant voices from days long gone by while to some others (not, I fear, too many), lovers of Greek Poetry especially, they may be not.
