Iphigenia at Aulis (Classic Reprint)
By:Euripides
Published on 2017-11-23 by Forgotten Books

Excerpt from Iphigenia at Aulis The translation, which is by no means either literal or complete, appears from the spelling 'iphigeneia' to have been made directly from the Greek, and this is indeed inherently probable; but a Latin version of the play by Erasmus had been printed at Paris in 1506, while a complete rendering of the Euripidean tragedies in that language was also extant.

Euripides: Children of Heracles
By:Florence Yoon
Published on 2020-01-09 by Bloomsbury Publishing

This book is an accessible guide through the many twists and turns of Euripides' Children of Heracles, providing several frameworks through which to understand and appreciate the play. Children of Heracles follows the fortunes of Heracles' family after his death. Euripides confronts characters and audience alike with an extraordinary series of plot twists and ethical challenges as the persecuted family of refugees struggles to find asylum in Athens before taking revenge on its enemy Eurystheus. It is a fast-paced story that explores the nature of power and its abuse, focusing on the appropriate treatment and behaviour of the powerless and the obligations and limitations of asylum. The audience must continually re-evaluate the play's moral dimensions as the characters respond to complications that range from the fantastic to the frighteningly realistic. Yoon situates Children of Heracles in its literary context, showing how Euripides constructs a unique kind of tragic plot from a wide range of conventions. It also explores the centrality of the dead Heracles and the leading role given to the socially powerless and the dramatically marginal. Finally, it discusses the historical contexts of the play's original performance and its political resonance both then and now.

Contextualizing Classics
By:John Peradotto
Published on 1999 by Rowman & Littlefield

This collection of original essays examines innovations in both the theory and practice of classical philology. The chapters address interdisciplinary methods in a variety of ways. Some apply theoretical insights derived from other disciplines, such as folklore studies, performance theory, feminist criticism, and the like, to classical texts. Others examine the relationships between classics and cultural studies, popular literature, film, art history, and other related disciplines. Others, again, look to the evolution of theoretical methods within the discipline of classics. Taken together, the essays offer a spectrum of new approaches in the classics and their place within the profession.
