In close comparison with Voss's translation of the \u003ci\u003eIliad\u003c\/i\u003e and Schiller's own translation of \u003ci\u003eIphigenia in Aulis\u003c\/i\u003e, Berns shows how \u003ci\u003eWallenstein\u003c\/i\u003e compounds echoes of Homeric and Euripidean characters and plots to create a rich horizon of mythical overtones above and beyond the historical world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gisela N.
