Essays on Euripidean Drama

Gilbert Norwood

doi:10.1017/CBO9781316530221

Originally published in 1954, this book examines dramaturgical elements of three Euripidean plays: The Bacchae, Hippolytus and Suppliant Women. Norwood takes a character-driven approach to Euripides' dramas, while also examining practical problems such as the arrangement of the chorus. This book will be of value to Classicists and anyone with an interest in ancient Greek drama.
