Frommer's '99 Ireland (Serial)

Meagher's translation of Euripides' Iphigenia at Aulis captures the horror of a young girl's lonely struggle against a vast army led by her father. Under the ruse of a betrothal to Achilles, Agamemnon, leader of the Greek forces in the war with Troy, sends for his daughter Iphigenia as a sacrifice to improve the fortunes of the Greek army. Iphigenia in Tauris represents her legendary and miraculous salvation.

Bolchazy-Carducci Publishers

This ancient Greek tragedy presents a spectacle of the torment, rage, and revenge endured and enacted by women who, Euripides realized, suffer first and most from war. In Hekabe, the fate of the bereaved queen of Troy is a testament to the dehumanizing rather than ennobling effects of intense and prolonged suffering. 
 As long as we live in a world which may almost be defined by violence, the ancient voice of Euripides' Hekabe will offer compelling witness to the courage and solidarity of those who suffer it most and a fierce challenge to the simplistic assurance that suffering is somehow for the better of us all. Meagher's translation of Euripides' Hekabe offers: - A lively and extremely actable English translation that is true to the word and spirit of the ancient original - An illuminating, attractive, and affordable presentation for the general reader, the college student, the director and performer alike.

Euripides' Hekabe

Dramas & Plays

Helen's face launched a thousand ships, to say nothing of countless books, dramas, poems, paintings, and operas. She is arguably the most notorious woman in Western culture. What makes her so engaging, so consequential? Like an ancient wall layered with millennia of graffiti, Helen preserves the human record. Her story and our story are not to be plied apart. She is woman as we have idealized, worshipped, slandered, celebrated, constructed and deconstructed her. Helen, for better or for worse, in all her metamorphoses, represents the complex, intact fossil record of woman in Western culture. The story of Helen is the story of woman.

Politics & Social Sciences

Social Sciences

This monograph and selective anthology serve to introduce the most immediately accessible and compelling playwright of the ancient Greek theater. The only volume of its kind available, it provides a rich selection of core plays and a substantial introduction to the full scope of the Euripidean corpus. 
 In 'Mortal Vision' Meagher endeavors to strike the core of what he takes to be Euripides' abiding concerns: war, the plight of women, and the awful mystery of the gods. The five plays selected for inclusion here embody those concerns as fully and powerfully as any in the Euripidean repertoire. Finally, in 'Revel and Revelation,' Meagher looks back at Euripides' consummate masterwork, the Bakkhai, as a definitive response to the ancient quip that Athenian drama has little or nothing to do with Dionysos. Nothing could be further FROM the truth.

The Essential Euripides: Dancing in Dark Times

War and Moral Injury: A Reader

Moral Injury has been called the "signature wound" of today's wars. It is also as old as the human record of war, as evidenced in the ancient war epics of Greece, India, and the Middle East. But what exactly is Moral Injury? What are its causes and consequences? What can we do to prevent or limit its occurrence among those we send to war? And, above all, what can we do to help heal afflicted warriors? 
This landmark volume provides an invaluable resource for those looking for answers to these questions. Gathered here are some of the most far-ranging, authoritative, and accessible writings to date on the topic of Moral Injury. Contributors come from the fields of psychology, theology, philosophy, psychiatry, law, journalism, neuropsychiatry, classics, poetry, and, of course, the profession of arms. Their voices find common cause in informing the growing, international conversation on war and war's deepest and most enduring invisible wound. Few may want to have this myth-challenging, truth-telling conversation, but it is one we must have if we truly wish to help those we send to fight our wars.

Meagher (humanities, Hampshire College, Massachusetts) and Neave (Plainville Community Schools, Connecticut) look past the thatched roofs and clay pipes, past Patrick and the saints, past the Celts, to Ireland of the Neolithic, Bronze, and early Iron Ages. They suggest how to plan, execute, and appreciate a tour of the oldest surviving structures, then set out three itineraries each focusing on a particular time period. In addition to the usual information, advice, maps, and color photographs, they identify activities for children. They do not provide an index.
