Conscience and the state in Sophocles’ *Antigone*
Sophocles’ tragedy centers on a conflict between individual conscience and state policy, with human suffering also named as a central concern. Nicholas Rudall’s new translation is the edition’s distinguishing feature; the supplied description emphasizes its speakability. Together, the subject and translation make this edition a clear point of entry into an ancient play whose questions concern the tension between personal conviction and public authority.
