Eighteen of his ninety or so plays survive complete, including Medea, Hippolytus, and Bacchae, one of the great masterpieces of the tragic genre. Fragments of his lost plays also survive.One of antiquity's greatest poets, Euripides has been prized in every age for the pathos, terror, and intellectual probing of his dramatic creations. This volume completes the new six-volume Loeb Classical Library edition of his plays. In Bacchae, a masterpiece of tragic drama, Euripides tells the story of king Pentheus's resistance to the worship of Dionysus and his horrific punishment. Iphigenia at Aulis recounts the sacrifice of Agamemnon's daughter to Artemis, the price exacted by the goddess for favorable sailing winds. Rhesus (probably not by Euripides) dramatizes a pivotal incident in the Trojan War. David Kovacs presents a faithful and skillfully worded translation of the three plays, facing a freshly edited Greek text.BacchantesDramaIphigenia (Greek mythology)DramaPentheus (Greek mythology)DramaRhesus (Legendary character)DramaTrojan WarDramaGreek drama (Satyr play)(OCoLC)947144fastGreek drama (Tragedy)(OCoLC)947146fastGreek drama(OCoLC)947127fastMythology, Greek(OCoLC)1031804fastMythology, Greek, in literature(OCoLC)1031814fastTragedy(OCoLC)1154355fastBacchantesIphigenia (Greek mythology)Pentheus (Greek mythology)Rhesus (Legendary character)Trojan WarGreek drama (Satyr play)Greek drama (Tragedy)Greek dramaMythology, GreekMythology, Greek, in literatureTragedy882/.01Euripides229973Kovacs DavidMaCbHUPTLCBOOK996201324603316Bacchae17651UNISA
