Prometheus Bound

<p>For readers accustomed to the relatively undramatic standard translations of <em>Prometheus Bound</em> this version by James Scully a poet and winner of the Lamont Poetry Prize and C. John Herington one of the world's foremost Aeschylean scholars will come as a revelation. Scully and Herington accentuate the play's true power drama and relevance to modern times. Aeschylus originally wrote <em>Prometheus Bound</em> as part of a tragic trilogy and this translation is unique in including the extant fragments of the companion plays.</p>
