Bücher von Euripides

""Iphigenie in Aulis"" ist ein Trauerspiel in f¿¿¿¿¿nf Akten, das von Euripides im Jahr 1790 verfasst wurde. Es erz¿¿¿¿¿hlt die Geschichte von Agamemnon, dem K¿¿¿¿¿¿nig von Mykene, der seine Tochter Iphigenie opfern muss, um die Gunst der G¿¿¿¿¿¿tter zu gewinnen und eine g¿¿¿¿¿nstige Windrichtung f¿¿¿¿¿r seine Flotte zu erhalten, die gegen Troja ziehen soll. Iphigenie ist zun¿¿¿¿¿chst entsetzt, als sie von dem Plan erf¿¿¿¿¿hrt, aber sie akzeptiert schlie¿¿¿¿¿lich ihr Schicksal und stirbt f¿¿¿¿¿r das Wohl ihres Volkes. Das St¿¿¿¿¿ck thematisiert die Konflikte zwischen individuellen W¿¿¿¿¿nschen und dem Wohl der Gemeinschaft sowie die Frage nach der moralischen Verantwortung von Herrschern. ""Iphigenie in Aulis"" gilt als eines der bedeutendsten Werke der antiken griechischen Trag¿¿¿¿¿¿die und hat bis heute grö¿¿¿¿en Einfluss auf die Literatur und das Theater.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A new version of Euripides's great antiwar play.

Euripides (Ancient Greek: Ευριπιδης) (ca. 480 BC - 406 BC) was the last of the three great tragedians of classical Athens (the other two being Aeschylus and Sophocles). Ancient scholars thought that Euripides had written ninety-five plays, although four of those were probably written by Critias. Eighteen or nineteen of Euripides' plays have survived complete. There has been debate about his authorship of Rhesus, largely on stylistic grounds and ignoring classical evidence that the play was his.[1] Fragments, some substantial, of most of the other plays also survive. More of his plays have survived than those of Aeschylus and Sophocles together, because of the unique nature of the Euripidean manuscript tradition. This book, "The Medea Of Euripides", by Euripides, is a replication of a book originally published before 1910. It has been restored by human beings, page by page, so that you may enjoy it in a form as close to the original as possible. This book was created using print-on-demand technology. Thank you for supporting classic literature.
