The Bacchae and Other Plays: Ion, The Women of Troy, Helen, The Bacchae
FROM THE PUBLISHER
Euripides (c.484-406 B.C.) was the most controversial of the three great Greek tragedians and the most modern. His major themes- religious scepticism, the injustices suffered by women and the destructive folly of war-are issues still vitally important today.
