I [would] like to mention that I myself have ordered this edition... W. Tyson Hausdoererffer, University of California ...the book should find a place...on school library shelves. The introduction is lively and immediately engaging... Journal of Classics Teaching, Issue 12
Review
Praise for the series: "Enthusiastically recommended...produces a language that is easy to read and easy to speak. The translators' notes describe the linguistic twists and turns involved in rendering the text into a modern poetic language."--Library Journal [starred review]
"The series as a whole should be lauded for providing compact and affordable editions that excel at making the ancient plays accessible to the modern reader.... This translation should definitely be praised for its contemporary tone and its overall lucidity. Since, in addition to the accessible translation, Collier and Machemer have provided a lively, informative introduction, helpful endnotes, a full glossary, and judicious suggestions for further reading, I have no qualms about recommending this edition for all but the most specialized reading contexts. As a final vote of confidence, I should like to mention that I myself have ordered this edition for an introductory-level course in Comparative Literature, and I have no doubt that my students will both enjoy and benefit from it."--W. Tyson Hausdoerffer, Bryn Mawr Classical Review
