Achilles in Greek Tragedy - Cambridge Classical Studies
Michelakis, Pantelis (University of Oxford)
This study examines how one of the most popular and glamorous figures of Greek mythology, and a key character in the Homeric epics, was imagined on the tragic stage of fifth-century Athens. Dr Michelakis argues that dramatists persistently appropriated Achilles to address concerns of their time.
