"The three plays presented in "Euripides V" are all important works: Electra, The Phoenician Women, and The Bacchae.
The editors are David Grene (who translated and provided the Introduction to "The History" by Herodotus) and Richmond Lattimore. Both are well reputed scholars of the classics. Before each play, they provide useful context and critical evaluations of the work. Emily Townsend Vermeule provides a competent translation.
The works stand or fall on the basis of the original quality of the plays and the competence of the translation. As such, each of the plays is worthwhile. The editors do a nice job of providing critical analysis (note some of the comparisons between Sophocles and Euripides).
In the end, this is a useful version of the three plays and a nice entree to the work of one of the great Greek tragedians. The work closes with a nice chronology of the plays of Euripides. In the final analysis, well done."
"(This is a review of the Bacchae only) Oh, Bacchae, how I love your gory disgusting ending. :) It is extraordinarily unfair for everyone except possibly Pentheus, but what a gloriously unfair ending it is! Everyone should read Ancient Greek plays. Don't be hatin'! Just make sure you don't get a lame-ass translation. :)"
"I liked the treatment of the Electra myth that Euripides gives, it's an interesting look into self-involved characters. Orestes and Electra are more spoiled brats, rather than slighted children out to avenge their father. Otherwise, the translation of the Bacchae is a strong one, but not my favorite (I prefer Woodruff's). Two of Euripides' better plays both in one volume."
