Este volumen reúne tres obras maestras del dramaturgo griego Sófocles, considerado desde la antigüedad como el más grande de todos los poetas trágicos. Las traducciones, que combinan elegancia y modernidad, destacan por su lucidez y precisión, y son igualmente adecuadas para la lectura por placer, el estudio o la representación teatral. La selección de Antígona, Edipo Rey y Electra no solo ofrece al lector las obras más influyentes y famosas de Sófocles, sino que también presenta en un solo volumen las dos obras dominadas por una figura heroica femenina, y la experiencia de las dos grandes dinastías que aparecen en la tragedia griega: las casas de Edipo y Agamenón.
Sophocles was an ancient Greek tragedian, one of three from whom at least two plays have survived in full. His first plays were written later than, or contemporary with, those of Aeschylus and earlier than, or contemporary with, those of Euripides. Sophocles wrote more than 120 plays, but only seven have survived in a complete form: Ajax, Antigone, Women of Trachis, Oedipus Rex, Electra, Philoctetes, and Oedipus at Colonus. For almost 50 years, Sophocles was the most celebrated playwright in the dramatic competitions of the city-state of Athens, which took place during the religious festivals of the Lenaea and the Dionysia. He competed in 30 competitions, won 24, and was never judged lower than second place. Aeschylus won 13 competitions and was sometimes beaten by Sophocles; Euripides won four.
