Medea

Medea. "Arnson Svarlien's translations ... remind me of why I love Euripides."                   Laurel Bowman, Department of Classics, University of Victoria (added by author)"Decisively the best translation I have seen it doesn't strain for cheap effects."          Tom Tucker, Isothermal Community College (added by author)"A translator who can write with genuine distinction ... with a rare sense of rhythm."                          Malcolm Heath, Greece and Rome (added by author)"This is the Medea we have been waiting for. It offers clarity without banality, eloquence without pretension, meter without doggerel, accuracy without clumsiness. No English Medea can ever be Euripides', but this is as close as anyone has come so far, and a good deal closer than I thought anyone would ever come. Arnson-Svarlien has shown herself exceedingly skillful in making Euripides sound Euripidean." David M.
