Twelve leading scholars honour Sir Hugh Lloyd-Jones, Regius Professor of Greek at Oxford from 1960 to 1989, with wide-ranging and original papers on the Greek tragic poet Sophocles. They include general views of the poet, detailed work on individual plays, and essays on Sophocles in the European tradition.
Sir Hugh Lloyd-Jones was Regius Professor of Greek at Oxford University from 1960 to 1989. A scholar of commanding intelligence and learning, he has made important contributions to our knowledge of ancient Greece across the full range from textual analysis to Greek religion and the classical tradition. In September 1997 a group of his friends, mostly former pupils and established scholars themselves, gathered to celebrate his seventy-fifth birthday and to offer him a set of papers on Sophocles, an author especially close to his heart. This volume collects those papers, which give very varied approaches to the poet, his work, and his influence. Professor Bernard Knox contributes a portrait of Sir Hugh as a scholar and a man as an introduction to the volume.
