At once reference text and literary foray, this work is designed to engage both specialists and non-specialists. It offers detailed discussion of the Greek text for those who have a knowledge of the language while also making all readings available in translation and transliterated forms. Sophocles' Use of Psychological Terminology will be an enduring resource for anyone interested in Athenian tragedy and especially for those interested in how the early Greeks viewed what we now think of as psychological activity.
