Resumen del Editor

When a jealous Zeus discovers that the compassionate Titan, Prometheus, has introduced the gift of fire to liberate mere mortals from oppression and servitude, he has Prometheus bound to a rocky prison in the Scythian desert, where the god discloses the reason for his punishment.

Prometheus Bound is one of only seven surviving plays by the prolific Athenian playwright, Aeschylus. Born into a noble family in 525 BC, Aeschylus is credited with having introduced dialogue into the Greek drama, and indeed is a father of modern theater.

Excellent performance of an inspiring story

Amazing actor performing a classic which is far more than an ancient myth. Prometheus's story is a symbol for resilience, courage, and pride in one's beliefs, values that are timeless and to be admired in any place and culture. I really enjoyed it!

different narration needed

I like Greek myths and drama but this was hard to follow due to the fact that the one guy does all the stage directions and all the characters so there is no differentiation, nothing to signal a new character and so the speeches all blend together. You lose track of the dramatic push for each speaker. So while I continue to listen and study the dramas, this one is a bit tough.

Loved this recording!

Mr. Field gave a wonderful performance of Prometheus Bound. All the characters came to life - so vividly that I could picture each of them, as well as the remote and desolate rock where Prometheus was bound. I love the archaic language of the translation, which I think added to the depth and profundity of the play.

A Powerful Delivery

If you have never read this play or seen it , I recommend this audiobook. We all know that Prometheus gave fire to mankind, but there is so much more to the story.

A great story, well told

I listened at .8x to better follow the dialogue, and savor the performance.
One of the shorter classics, easily done in a day, about the regime change, the penalties of following your conscience, and the follow through.

An Excellent Performance of An Ancient Play

I completely enjoyed this performance. It is completely faithful to the translation within The Harvard Classics. I both enjoyed the audiobook and am using it and The Harvard Classics to study this and other ancient plays. Thank You…

A one-man show

Robin Field appears to be doing all the voices in this production. Given that, it's more dramatic than might be expected: he's acting out the play, not simply reading it. If Field were less skillful, it could be dismissed as a vanity production. But it doesn't quite work for me. I have two complaints: in a couple of scenes, the voices are close enough together that it's difficult to tell immediately who's speaking; and the translation Field uses is a very poor one, from the standpoint of English style: an early-twentieth-century imitation of "Bible English" taken from Harvard Classics. (Probably easy on the royalty department, but hard on the ears. Surely there are better public domain translations available.)
