Book Overview
This volume presents three classic plays of Euripides: "Iphigenia in Tauris", "Rhesus", and "Troades" (also known as "The Trojan Women"). These works exemplify the power and enduring relevance of Greek tragedy. "Iphigenia in Tauris" tells the story of Iphigenia's service in the temple of Artemis and her surprising reunion with her brother, Orestes. "Rhesus", often attributed to Euripides, offers a glimpse into the events of the Trojan War through the tale of the Thracian king Rhesus. "Troades", a profoundly moving work, depicts the suffering of the Trojan women after the fall of Troy. These plays, presented together, offer a rich tapestry of Greek drama, exploring themes of fate, revenge, and the human condition. This collection is essential reading for students of classical literature and anyone interested in the foundations of Western dramatic tradition.
