The myth of fire stolen from the gods appears in many preindustrial societies In Greek culture Prometheus the firestealer figures prominently in the poems of Hesiod but in Prometheus Bound Hesiods morality tale has been transformed into a drama of tragic tone and proportions In the introduction Mark Griffith examines how the dramatist has achieved this transformation looking at the play from all angles plot and characters dramatic technique style and metre He includes a short section on the production of the play and on the questions of authenticity and date The commentary guides the reader through problems of language metre and content An important feature of this volume is the appendix which gathers together the existing fragments of the other two plays in the supposed Prometheus trilogy quoting them in full in the original language and in translation with short accompanying commentary This is suitable for undergraduates and students in the upper forms of schools It also deserves the serious attention of scholars The introduction requires no knowledge of Greek and will interest students of drama and literature in other cultures too
