As Edmunds writes, \"Translations, adaptations, and performances still come forth in a never-ending stream. Again and again, playwrights have tried their hand at new shapings of the Sophoclean Oedipuses and often a country's Oedipus forms a whole chapter in the history of its literature.\" Drawing on more than seventy works that dispersed the Oedipus legend from Greece to Asia, Africa, and the Americas, Edmunds provides a foundation for discussion of the lasting appeal of this legend, for claims of its universality, and for its uses as a vehicle for personal and cultural expression.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e**STAR SELLER **\u003cbr\u003eSmooth shipping\u003cbr\u003eSpeedy replies\u003cbr\u003eRave reviews\u003cbr\u003eFree shipping","brand":"Three Pigeons Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46727966458054,"sku":null,"price":37.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0749\/7983\/6102\/files\/il_fullxfull.4770196198_7nli.jpg?v=1785771780","url":"https:\/\/threepigeonsbookshop.com\/products\/oedipus-the-ancient-legend-and-its-later-analogues-lowell-edmunds-gift","provider":"Three Pigeons Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
