It is based upon the most authoritative recent edition of the Greek text and particular care is taken with the many lyric passages. A lengthy introduction sets the plays in their original context, and includes short appreciative essays on them.

Major difficulties in the texts themselves, which affect general interpretation, are briefly discussed.
