Print on Demand. This book is a deep dive into the character of Ajax, a hero of the Trojan War, known for his strength and bravery, who was driven to madness by Athena and turned against his own men. The author explores themes of tragedy, heroism, and the destructive power of madness, delving into Ajax's struggle to reconcile his identity as a valiant warrior with the seemingly senseless violence he commits. The book examines Ajax's place in Greek mythology, comparing his character to other heroes and exploring the ways in which he embodies both the best and worst of human nature. Through a nuanced analysis of the play and its historical context, this book sheds light on the complexities of human behaviour and the enduring power of Sophocles' work. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
