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 (ca. 485-406 BCE) has been prized in every age for the pathos, terror, surprising plot twists, and intellectual probing of his dramatic creations. Here, in the third volume of a new edition that is receiving much praise, is the text and translation of three of his plays. Trojan Women, a play about the causes and consequences of war, develops the theme of the tragic unpredictability of life. Iphigenia among the Taurians and Ion exhibit tragic themes and situations (the murder of close relatives). Each ends happily with a joyful reunion. As in the first three volumes of this edition, David Kovacs gives us a freshly edited Greek text and an admired new translation that, in the words of Greece and Rome, is "close to the Greek and reads fluently and well;" his introduction to each play and explanatory notes offer readers judicious guidance.Greek drama (Tragedy)Translations into EnglishHecuba (Legendary character)DramaIon (Greek mythology)DramaIphigenia (Greek mythology)DramaTrojan WarDramaBacchantes(OCoLC)825025fastCassandra (Legendary character)(OCoLC)848303fastHecuba (Legendary character)(OCoLC)954435fastHelen of Troy (Greek mythology)(OCoLC)954545fastQueens(OCoLC)1085637fastTurkeyTroy (Extinct city)fastGreek drama (Tragedy)Translations into English.Hecuba (Legendary character)Drama.Ion (Greek mythology)Drama.Iphigenia (Greek mythology)Drama.Trojan WarDrama.BacchantesCassandra (Legendary character)Hecuba (Legendary character)Helen of Troy (Greek mythology)Queens882/.01Euripides229973Kovacs DavidMaCbHUPTLCBOOK996218321003316Trojan women157355UNISA
