Originally published during the early part of the twentieth century, the Cambridge Manuals of Science and Literature were designed to provide concise introductions to a broad range of topics. They were written by experts for the general reader and combined a comprehensive approach to knowledge with an emphasis on accessibility. Greek Tragedy by J. T. Sheppard was first published in 1911. The book contains an account of the origins and characteristics of Greek tragedies, together with discussion of the works of Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides.
