‘O Ancient Argos of the Land’: Euripides, Electra

Classical Quarterly 26 (1):1-2 (1976)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

Neither can stand. ‘Argos of the land’ is nonsense, and even if it were not, is absurd as an apostrophe of the River Inachus. ‘a plain’, indistinguishable from is similarly impossible: the audience would be baffled; in 6 has to be the first occurrence of the vox; ‘streams’ cannot be apposed to a ‘plain’, even if could have been understood as meaning this.
