Thank you so much for you e-text translations of Euripides and Aristophanes.  I am home schooling my children in Lima, Peru where we cannot access English libraries.  My daughter who is in tenth grade is reading through the classic literature. The translations I found of Euripides' 'The Bacchae' and Aristophanes' 'Peace', 'Birds', and 'Frogs' were not very good.  I thank you so much for providing a much clearer translation in a format that we can access.

An adult Shakespeare Group . . . in Melbourne, Australia, of which I am the tutor, sometimes, as a break from Shakespeare, looks at other major dramas. Last year I was very keen that we should take on Aeschylus' "The Oresteia Trilogy" but we had difficulty in finding a suitable translation.  Our Group . . . came across your translation on the internet and was very taken with it. So it was downloaded and copied and . . . read to great effect. A former Melbourne headmaster and also a classicist followed the original text as we read and was full of admiration for the translation.
