Electra Antigone Philoctetes

Electra, Antigone, Philoctetes (1992) – Sophocles | Cambridge University Press

Three ancient Greek tragedies bundled together in a single neat little Cambridge volume—Electra, Antigone, and Philoctetes. That’s vengeance, defiance, and a grumpy wounded soldier all in one place.

Published in 1992 by Cambridge University Press, this edition offers the classical texts with scholarly seriousness, though you’ll likely be buying it because you just need Sophocles in your life (or on your reading list). It’s not shiny, it’s not new, and it may carry the faint aroma of a thousand classrooms—but it still does the job.

At Crappy Old Books, we won’t promise pristine; we’ll promise authentic. This copy has lived a life, much like Sophocles’ characters—slightly battered, maybe a pencil note or two, but still carrying all the tragic punch you’d expect.

Condition near new.
