Om bidragsyterne

Euripides is the youngest and most controversial of the three surviving great tragedians from fifth century Athens. His works include Medea, the Trojan Women, the Bacchae, Iphigenia at Aulis and Hippolytus. His polemic, charged plays with their universal themes and significance remain highly relevant to today's society.

Published in the new Methuen Classical Dramatists series. Always controversial, Euripides' plays are now celebrated for the subtlety of their characterisation and their unorthodox dramatic style. This volume contains three of his finest tragedies: Medea, the abandoned wife, who murders her own children; The Phoenician Women, a further twist in the story of Oedipus and Jocasta; and Bacchae, a macabre and complex play, about the power and irrationality of Dionysos. These translations are by David Thompson and J. Michael Walton.With an introduction by J. Michael Walton

Representing the birth of world drama, the Classical Dramatists series gathers the plays that breathed life into the early Greek theatre and which remain as established classics of the repertoire to this day. The translations offered have become classics in their own right and are those recommended for students of classical drama as well as for the stage. Each collection comes complete with an introductory essay exploring the life of the writer and the dramaturgical and historical contexts, and offering a commentary upon the plays contained in the volume.
