Who is the "best" translator of Sophocles?
Or Aeschylus?

I know all the arguments between Fagles/Fitzgerald/Lattimore/Chapman/Pope/etc for Iliad and Odyssey translations, is it the same with other greek works?

Sorry if threads like these have been beaten to death, I tried asking in other threads and was ignored.

Also, I read Fagles translation of Oresteia and really enjoyed it. Same with his translation of the Iliad, though I think I would prefer something more faithful to the original next time.
