Near Fine with pages very lightly toned in a Near Fine dust jacket with a small crease in the top left corner of the rear flap.A play by Günter Grass about the workers' uprising in East Germany on June 17 1953. The workers beseech "The Boss" a thinly disguised Bertolt Brecht to support the uprising. The book includes the text of a speech by Grass as well as a "documentary report" on the uprising. Translated by Ralph Manheim; the book originally was published in Germany under the title "Die Plebejer proben den Aufstand." The play was controversial; many reviewers thought it was deeply unfair to Brecht because Brecht couldn't defend himself. He was already dead. <br /><br /> Harcourt, Brace & World, Inc. hardcover books

Scholar's name to half-title (Robert Brown). Else fine. ; No book in English covering all the plays of Euripides has been published since 1967. In the meantime there has been something of a revolution in the way we view classical drama generally and Euripides in particular. "The Plays of Euripides" reflects that revolution and aims to show how Euripides was continually reinventing himself. A truly Protean figure, he seems to set out on a new journey in each of his surviving nineteen plays. Between general introduction and final summary, Morwood's chapters identify the themes that underlie the plays and concentrate, above all, on demonstrating the extraordinary diversity of this great dramatist.; Classical World Series; 96 pages

3 tiny scratches along top edge-- very light shelfwear else Fine. ; Mnemosyne Supplements 314; 580 pages; This volume is arguably one of the most important studies of Euripides to appear in the last decade. Not only does it offer incisive examinations of many of Euripides' extant plays and their influence, it also includes seminal examinations of a number of Euripides’ fragmentary plays. This approach represents a novel and exciting development in Euripidean studies, since it is only very recently that the fragmentary plays have begun to appear in reliable and readily accessible editions. The book’s thirty-two contributors constitute an international 'who’s who' of Euripidean studies and Athenian drama, and their contributions will certainly feature in the forefront of scholarly discourse on Euripides and Greek drama for years to come.
