Medea
Summary and analysis of the play by euripides.

Extractions: MEDEA A summary and analysis of the play by Euripides This document was originally published in The Drama: Its History, Literature and Influence on Civilization, vol. 1 . ed. Alfred Bates. London: Historical Publishing Company, 1906. pp. 192-196. The Medea "I am the mother of your children. Whither can I fly, since all Greece hates the barbarian?" "It is not you," answers Jason, "who once saved me, but love, and you have had from me more than you gave. I have brought you from a barbarous land to Greece, and in Greece you are esteemed for your wisdom. And without fame of what avail is treasure or even the gifts of the Muses? Moreover, it is not for love that I have promised to marry the princess, but to win wealth and power for myself and for my sons. Neither do I wish to send you away in need; take as ample a provision as you like, and I will recommend you to the care of my friends." She refuses with scorn his base gifts, "Marry the maid if thou wilt; perchance full soon thou mayst rue thy nuptials."

My sons! ye have a city and a house Where, leaving hapless me behind, without A mother ye for ever shall reside. But I to other realms an exile go, Ere any help from you I could derive, Or see you blest; the hymeneal pomp, The bride, the genial couch, for you adorn, And in these hands the kindled torch sustain. How wretched am I through my own perverseness! You, O my sons, I then in vain have nurtured, In vain have toiled, and, wasted with fatigue, Suffered the pregnant matron's grievous throes. On you, in my afflictions, many hopes I founded erst: that ye with pious care Would foster my old age, and on the bier Extend me after deathmuch envied lot Of mortals; but these pleasing anxious thoughts Are vanished now; for, losing you, a life Of bitterness and anguish shall I lead. But as for you, my sons, with those dear eyes Fated no more your mother to behold
The Bacchae
Summary and analysis of the play by euripides.
http://www.imagi-nation.com/moonstruck/clsc4w1.htm

Extractions: The Bacchae A summary and analysis of the play by Euripides In the Bacchae , Pentheus, king of Thebes, seeks to put down the new worship of Dionysus, which is turning the heads of his female subjects. The offended god persuades him to dress himself in the garb of a Bacchante, that he may pry into the sacred mysteries. Then, disguised as a stranger, he leads him to the mountains, and placing him on the topmost branch of a tall pine, delivers him into the hands of the Maenads, the female devotees of Bacchus, who tear him limb from limb. A slave, who had accompanied the king, thus in part tells the story: A voice, The voice of Dionysus, seemingly, Was heard from heaven: "Lo, I have brought," he said, "Maidens, the man who mocks at you and me And at my mysteries; take your revenge." Thus as he spake, he made o'er earth and sky To spread a fiery blaze of awful light. Silence was in the heavens, in the green glen

I have put off the god and taken human shape, and so present myself at Dirce's springs and the waters of Ismenus. Yonder I see my mother's monument where the bolt slew her nigh her house, and there are the ruins of her home smouldering with the heavenly flame that blazeth still-Hera's deathless outrage on my mother. To Cadmus all praise I offer, because he keeps this spot hallowed, his daughter's precinct

http://ablemedia.com/ctcweb/netshots/medea.htm

Extractions: Medea The setting of the Medea , as in the case of most Greek tragedies, does not require a change of scene. Throughout the play the skene with at least one door represents the facade of Jason 's and Medea 's house in Corinth. Even when the poet directs the audience's attention to events elsewhere, as in the case of the deaths of Creon and his daughter in the royal palace, there is no shift of scene. These events are described in a speech delivered by a messenger (1136-1230) rather than enacted before the audience. The messenger speech eliminates the need for scene changes, which, due to the limited resources of the ancient theater, would have been difficult and awkward. Euripides , like Aeschylus and Sophocles , made a virtue of the necessity of this convention of the ancient theater by writing elaborate messenger speeches which provide a vivid word picture of the offstage action. The numbers refer to lines in the Medea
The Bacchae: Tiresias' Monologue

Extractions: THE BACCHAE A monologue from the play by Euripides NOTE: This monologue is reprinted from The Plays of Euripides in English, vol. ii TIRESIAS: 'Tis easy to be eloquent, for him That's skilled in speech, and hath a stirring theme. Thou hast the flowing tongue as of a wise man, But there's no wisdom in thy fluent words; For the bold demagogue, powerful in speech, Is but a dangerous citizen lacking sense. This the new deity thou laugh'st to scorn, I may not say how mighty he will be Throughout all Hellas. Youth! there are two things Man's primal need, Demeter, the boon Goddess (Or rather will ye call her Mother Earth?), With solid food maintains the race of man. He, on the other hand, the son of Semele, Found out the grape's rich juice, and taught us mortals That which beguiles the miserable of mankind Of sorrow, when they quaff the vine's rich stream. Sleep too, and drowsy oblivion of care He gives, all-healing medicine of our woes. He 'mong the gods is worshipped a great god, Author confessed to man of such rich blessings Him dost thou love to scorn, as in Jove's thigh

Extractions: Table of Contents Aristotle's Poetics The setting of the Bacchae , as in the case of most Greek tragedies, does not require a change of scene Throughout the play the skene with at least one door represents the facade of the royal palace of Thebes Even when the poet shifts the audience's attention from the palace to events in the woods, there is no shift of scene These events are described in two speeches delivered by messengers and one by an attendant rather than enacted before the audience (434-450;677-774; 1043-1152). Even when action takes place inside the palace, as in the case of Dionysus humiliation of Pentheus (610-641), there is no shift of scene, but the god himself narrates this interior action to the Chorus The Messenger speech eliminates the need for scene changes, which, due to the limited resources of the ancient theater, would have been difficult and awkward In addition, these four speeches describe actions which could not be effectively portrayed on-stage Euripides , however, like Aeschylus and Sophocles , made a virtue of the necessity of this convention of the ancient theater by writing elaborate Messenger speeches which provide a vivid word picture of the offstage action.

http://www.emory.edu/ENGLISH/DRAMA/Euripedes.html

Extractions: EURIPIDES "with all his faults the most tragic of the poets," said Aristotle, supreme among critics, whose claim to pronounce ever the final verdict has only of late been called into question. His judgment here points the latter-day attitude toward him: the great critic was wrong; he confused sadness and tragedy. Euripides is the saddest of the poets and for that very reason not the most tragic. A very great tragedian, beyond all question, one of the world's four greatest, to all of whom belongs that strangest power, so to present the spectacle of pain that we are lifted to what we truly call the height of tragedy. Euripides can indeed walk "those heights exalted" but the dark depths of pain are what he knows best. He is "the poet of the world's grief." He feels, as no other writer has felt, the pitifulness of human life, as of children suffering helplessly what they do not know and can never understand. No poet's ear has ever been so sensitively attuned as his to the still, sad music of humanity, a strain little heeded by that world of long ago. And together with that, something then even more unheeded, the sense of the value of each individual human being. He alone of all the classic world so felt. It is an amazing phenomenon. Out of the pages written more than twenty-three hundred years ago sound the two notes which we feel are the dominants in our world to-day, sympathy with suffering and the conviction of the worth of everyone alive. A poet of the antique world speaks to us and we hear what seems peculiarly our own.

http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/ancient/eb11-euripides.html

Extractions: 11th Brittanica: Euripides EURIPIDES (480-406 B.C.), the great Greek dramatic poet, was born in 480 B.C., on the very day, according to the legend, of the Greek victory at Salamis, where his Athenian parents had taken refuge; and a whimsical fancy has even suggested that his name- son of Euripus- was meant to commemorate the first check of the Persian fleet at Artemisium. His father Mnesarchus was at least able to give him a liberal education; it was a favourite taunt with the comic poets that his mother Clito had been a herbseller-a quaint instance of the tone which public satire could then adopt with plausible effect. At first he was intended, we are told, for the profession of an athlete,- a calling of which he has recorded his opinion with something like the courage of Xenophanes. He seems also to have essayed painting; but at fiveandtwenty he brought out his first play, the Peliodes, Melanippe (Nauck, Frag., 4953

Extractions: Euripides Um 406 starb der Tragiker, der um 485 v. Chr. auf Salamis geboren wurde, vermutlich am makedonischen Königshof in Pella. Er war nicht so berühmt und erfolgreich wie Aischylos und Sophokles, was sich an der geringen Zahl der Siege, 4, ableiten läßt; aber er wirkte stark auf die Dichter kommender Epochen, vor allem das hellenistische, das römische und das klassizistische französische Drama. Bei Euripides entstehen die dramatischen Konflikte aus den Leidenschaften und Handlungen der Figuren selbst, unabhängig vom Schicksal, Euripides führte die Gestalt des Gottes, der am Schluß zur Lösung der Probleme beiträgt (=Deus ex Machina) ein. Zu seinen Themen gehören unter anderen: Kritik an der untergeordneten Position der Frau in der athenischen Gesellschaft, an der ungerechten Behandlung außerehelicher Kinder und an der Glorifizierung des Krieges. Er schrieb zwischen 80 und 90 Dramen, 17 Tragödien sind erhalten: "Alkestis", "Medea", "Die Herakliden", "Andromache", "Hippolytos", "Hekabe", "Die Schutzflehenden", "Elektra", "Helena", "Iphigenie bei den Taurern", "Ion", "Die Phönikerinnen", "Orest", "Iphigenie in Aulis", "Die Bakchen" u.a.

Extractions: The Bacchae GREEK LITERATURE / J.P. ADAMS (Powell, Classical Myth , pp. 252-276.) (after Euripides died in exile in Macedonia, the news of which event had reached Athens before the Dionysia of 406, in Elaphabolion, the 9th Athenian month, ca. March 406.) G.S. Kirk: "Dionysus has allowed himself to be hunted down and insulted; he uses his divine powers to escape and gradually makes his captor into a ready victim for his instruments, the `deadly herd', Agave's `coursing hounds'. Pentheus' temporal authority is progressively revealed as impotence in relation to the unfolding power of the god; and since king and god are in direct conflict it follows that the victim will become the aggressor, the hunted the hunter, and vice versa." The Bacchae of Euripides [1970], p. 14)

Er ist jüngster der drei großen Tragöden Sophokles Aischylos und Euripides Der einer reichen Familie aus Phyla entstammende Dichter arbeitete abgeschieden in einer Höhle auf der Insel Salamis , hatte aber durchaus Kontakt zur Geisteswelt seiner Zeit. Er soll Schüler des Anaxagoras gewesen sein und traf mit dem Philosophen Sokrates zusammen. Seine Kontakte mit den Stoikern und/oder seine Art der Dichtung trugen ihm den Vorwurf des Kleon ein, gottlos zu sein, er nutzte die Mythen zur Darstellung menschlichen Daseins und der Zufälligkeit des Geschicks, womit er das planvoll-göttliche Wirken in den Hintergrund treten läßt. Wenngleich er bei seinen Zeitgenossen nicht übermäßig beliebt gewesen sein soll, gewann er bei den Spielen, an denen er erstmals 445v. teilnahm, 441 seinen ersten Preis, später noch drei weitere.
