Sobre IBD

Septem Contra Thebas is a tragedy written by Aeschylus in ancient Greece, and this book is a translation of that play into English. The play is set in the city of Thebes, where two brothers, Eteocles and Polynices, are fighting for the throne. The play follows the events leading up to a final battle between the two brothers and their armies. The play is known for its exploration of themes such as fate, pride, and the consequences of war. The translation was first published in 1853, and it remains a popular edition of the play for English-speaking readers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick
       “It seems to me that for fertility in droll inventions, the perpetual outpouring of unforeseen misunderstandings, for the inexhaustible gaiety of dialogue, Feydeau’s new play is superior to everything he’s written so far. The most astonishing thing is the sureness with which everything is controlled, explained, justified, in the most extravagant buffoonery. The cross-purpose...

A queen, I mean, and not just of the self-dramatizing type. Scratch that. She’s more than a queen. She’s a pharaoh, one Hatshepsut, who reigned over Egypt ...
