2/23: a terrific tragedy

I just finished reading Scully & Herington's translation of Aeschylus' Prometheus Bound. I assigned the play for my Myth class tomorrow because I knew it would work well with other texts we're covering this semester. But I hadn't read it since 1988, so I needed to seriously re-read it this evening! And it was fantastic--harrowing and even depressing, but fantastic.
