关于此电子书

A student edition of this challenging and popular tragedy with notes and commentary.

The most controversial of the Greek tragedians, Euripedes is also
the most modern in his sympathies, a dramatist who handles the complex
emotions of his characters with extraordinary depth and insight.

Wronged and discarded by her husband, Medea gradually reveals
her revenge in its increasing horror, while the audience is led to
understand the incomprehensible; a woman who murders her own children.
Since its first production (431 BC), the play has exerted an
irresistible attraction for actors and directors alike.


Translated by J.Michael Walton.

作者简介

Euripides was born near Athens between 485 and 480 BC and grew up
during the years of Athenian recovery after the Persian Wars. His first
play was presented in 455 BC and he wrote some hundred altogether. His
later plays are marked by a sense of disillusion at the futility of
human aspiration which amounts on occasion to a philosophy of
absurdism. A year or two before his death he left Athens to live at the
court of the king of Macedon, dying there in 406 BC. Nineteen of his
plays survive, including Hippolytos, The Bacchae, Iphigeneia at Aulis,
Hecuba, Medea, and The Trojan Women.
