關於本電子書
Before now, only initiates into the mysteries of Ancient Greek could truly appreciate the genius of Aristophanes, but with this book, all those wishing to read, sing, play, or study this groundbreaking masterpiece have all that they need in hand: a lively and modern text offering two complimentary versions of the play - one in fleetfooted verse, where everything hitherto obscure has been stood to reason by a few carefully concocted rhymes - and a second, a near-verbatim interlineal, woven into a curated copy of the original Attic Greek...
... and with this EBOOK version of the "Peace worth more than the paper it's printed on", you can switch easily between the rhyming verse and the literal interlineal... Ideal for the study of Ancient Greek, and for those wanting to both enjoy the play as a comedy and to know what Aristophanes really said...
As with the print version of this book, there is a fully customized glossary of explanatory notes (with more sober explanations than those of the rhyming verse!) for the many, often mysterious allusions to which each entry refers.
