Sophocles was born in 495 B.C. into a wealthy family near Athens, and thus benefited from all the intellectual stimulation that Greece had to offer in its Golden Age. He studied the arts, and eventually wrote over 120 plays. Unfortunately, only 7 survive in their entirety. Besides his work in the theater, he was also an ordained priest, a military general, and a director of the Treasury of the Delian League. The Trachiniae is a powerful story of the jealous wife of Heracles, and the unfortunate consequences that ensue from her desperation. This edition of Sophocles The Trachiniae includes a table of contents and is illustrated.
