Septem Contra Thebas

Septem Contra Thebas is a tragedy written by Aeschylus in ancient Greece, and this book is a translation of that play into English. The play is set in the city of Thebes, where two brothers, Eteocles and Polynices, are fighting for the throne. The play follows the events leading up to a final battle between the two brothers and their armies. The play is known for its exploration of themes such as fate, pride, and the consequences of war. The translation was first published in 1853, and it remains a popular edition of the play for English-speaking readers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
