Content: Complete Work

Mário da Gama Kury (1922-2016), lawyer, writer, and translator. Kury studied law and worked as a lawyer at the state-owned company Companhia Vale do Rio Doce, serving in that capacity for over 30 years. Upon his retirement in 1976, Kury devoted himself more fully to his passion: directly translating works of Greco‑Roman literature from original languages into Portuguese. Among his original works is Dicionário de Mitologia Grega e Romana (1984). He also translated many classical tragedies, comedies, philosophical and historiographical texts, including authors such as Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Aristophanes, Aristotle, and Thucydides.

Translation based on the text established by Hude 1903. Republished in 1987 with a new preface by Helio Jaguaribe – see Kury 1987.
