Sommario/riassunto |
|
"This is a study of three late plays of Euripides: Helen, Andromeda and Iphigenia among the Taurians. This book examines central themes such as myth, geography, cultural identity, philosophy, religion, and genre. Matthew Wright presents a new interpretation of the plays, arguing that they are a thematically connected trilogy"--Provided by publisher. |
