Description
This book, first full-length study of this often undervalued play, argues for a new appreciation of the power of its rhetoric, the subtlety of its characterization, and the beauty of its choral odes. Mossman also traces the powerful influence of Hecuba in the Renaissance, and compares the play with English revenge tragedies of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.
