Description
All three of the great tragic poets of ancient Greece produced plays about the Electra myth. If Sophocles (496-406 B.C.) lacks the archaic grandeur of Aeschylus or the neurotic intensity of Euripides, his version is supreme for its power and humanity.
First Sentence
The scene is before the tent of Ajax, in the camp of the Greeks near Troy.
