Description

This third and final volume brings to completion James Diggle's major new edition of all the surviving plays of Euripides. It supersedes the third volume of Murray's Oxford Text of 1909. The work is based on new collations of all the relevant manuscripts and incorporates many new ideas for the improvement of the text suggested by recent scholars and the editor himself.

Reviews

Praise for Vols. I and II: "The virtues of this first-rate edition are too numerous to catalog, and in any case, since they will stand enshrined in what is undoubtedly to be the standard text of Euripides for the next generation or two, they will receive as their just requital the gratitude of countless scholars and students in the future."--Classical Philology , 1984

"Diggle is to be congratulated for the high achievement represented by this volume....We look forward to the third...and are tempted to wish for a fourth."--Classical Philology , 1986

Praise for Vol. III: "As before, Diggle shows intimate knowledge of the previous editions and textual studies of Euripides, and he is ever alert to small changes that increase the clarity or elegance of the verse."--Classical Journal
