Fragments by Euripides
Euripides (ca. 485406 BC) has been prized in every age for his emotional and intellectual drama. Eighteen of his ninety or so plays survive complete, including Medea, Hippolytus, and Bacchae, one of the great masterpieces of the tragic genre. Fragments of his lost plays also survive.
Euripides keeps us on the edge of our seats, whipping up pity, fear, surprise and shock in large doses.. The splendid new two-volume Loeb edition of the fragments of Euripides, of which the second volume has just appeared, is a comforting reminder that we actually have fairly substantial knowledge of many Euripidean “lost” plays as well. -- Emily Wilson * Times Literary Supplement *
