    Literary historians have long held the view that the plays of the Greek dramatist, Sophocles deal purely with archetypes of the heroic past and that any resemblance to contemporary events or individuals is purely coincidental. In this book, Michael Vickers challenges this view and argues that Sophocles makes regular and extensive allusion to Athenian politics in his plays, especially to Alcibiades, one of the most controversial Athenian politicians of his day. Vickers shows that Sophocles was no closeted intellectual but a man deeply involved in politics and he reminds us that Athenian politics The mythologizing of history -- Antigone, Pericles and Alcibiades -- Oedipus Tyrannus, Alcibiades, Cleon and Aspasia -- Ajax, Alcibiades and Andocides -- Philoctetes, Alcibiades, Andocides and Pericles -- Alcibiades in exile : Euripides' Cyclops -- Oedipus at Colonus, Alcibiades and Critias -- Critias and Alcibiades : Euripides' Bacchae -- Alcibiades and Melos : Thucydides 5.84-116 -- Thucydides on tyrannicides : not a "digression" -- Alcibiades and Persia (and more Thucydidean "digressions") -- Alcibiades and Critias in the Gorgias: Plato's "fine satire."
