Euripides is the most restless and passionate of the three great Greek tragic authors. He is arguably the most influential, thanks to his poetic sensibility, which feels closer to the modern era. Unlike Aeschylus and Sophocles, who preceded him, Euripides humanizes and gives a realistic character to myth, unleashing poetic outbursts while also showing himself to be very rationalist. This contradictory contrast is part of his charm and modernity. This third and final volume, which collects the complete tragedies of Euripides in the Classical Library, includes: Helen, The Phoenician Women, Orestes, Iphigenia in Aulis, The Bacchae, and the debated Rhesus.
