Based on the conviction that only translators who write poetry themselves can properly recreate the celebrated Greek tragedies, the Greek Tragedy in New Translation series offers new translations that go beyond the literal meaning of the Greek in order to evoke the poetry of the originals. Under the general editorship of Peter Burian and Alan Shapiro, each volume includes a critical introduction, commentary on the text, full stage directions, and a glossary of the mythical and geographical references in the plays.Brought boldly to life by Herbert Golder and Richard Pevear's translation and contextualized by Herbert Golder's eloquent introduction, this early Sophoclean tragedy tells the story of the Homeric hero better known as Ajax, who was second only to Achilles among the Greek warriors. In Greek tradition, Aias figures as the archaic warrior who dies in shame after his betrayal by the Greeks. Sophocles turns tradition inside out, portraying Aias' suicide not as a disgrace but as heroism. He endows Aias suicide with a meaning radically different from previous versions of the Aias myth--Aias is not the hero whom time has passed by, but rather the man who steps beyond time. Most previous versions and interpretations have equivocated over Sophocles' bold vision. This edition of Aias translates precisely that transformation of the hero from the bygone figure to the man who transcends time.

Glad I chose these Sturdy, Fluffy Pillows
Color: White, Size: 18x18 Inch
Took me forever to decide which pillows to buy....Price won out. There might be better out there, but I really can't see how. They plumped up really nicely. I once learned from a manager at a big box dept store when purchasing a goose down pillow how to 'activate' the pillow. Basically, he violently threw the pillow down onto the floor, then proceeded to beat the tar out of it....That's how it's done. I think many ppl don't do a good enough job when they get their pillows. I watched several videos from ppl who have purchased this type of pillow. And quite frankly, they do not know what they are doing....My pillows are very plump and awesome. I purchased the 20" squares and then chose 18" pillow covers to stuff them into. Perfection. Fat, soft, soothing pillows. Me and my Doggo are quite happy to lounge around on these durable puffs of fluffiness.

Perfect
Color: White, Size: 12x12 Inch
These are great quality pillow inserts. They arrived very securely vacuum packed. Be careful when opening. I followed the directions and they were fluffy within a few minutes. They are small, but this is the size that I needed. I am glad that I didn’t order a few inches larger, as recommended by many. They fit perfectly in my 12x12 inch pillow covers. I would recommend this brand and seller for purchasing this product.

These shoes are cute, and go with most everything. They are comfortable and can be work for while without having any issues. I was a bit worried they might rub blisters but have not had that problem with these. The heel and fit of them are perfect. And they are versatile. Worth the price.
