Bernd Manuwald’s edition of Sophocles’ Philoctetes is the third commentary on a Sophoclean play to appear in Dr Gruyter’s series ‘Griechische Dramen’, after Oedipus the King (2012, by the same editor, and reviewed by me in Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2013–05–16) and Electra (2016, by T. A. Schmitz, reviewed by me in Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2017–03–47); other volumes have appeared in the same series on Euripides and Aristophanes.
