The Greek playwright Euripedes was misunderstood in his own time, but the topics he chose to write about--women's role in society, war, religion, and the human condition--are still relevant today. Included here: "Alcestis", "Hippolytus", "Ion", "Electra", "Iphigenia at Aulis", "Iphigenia Among the Taurians", "Medea", "The Bachhae", "The Trojan Woman", and "The Cyclops".
