Euripides Born on the Island of Salamis around 484 BCE, Euripides was a contemporary of Sophocles. Contemplative and private in character, he was also a controversial man who often found himself at odds with people. Although he had a reputation as a woman-hater, Euripides achieved fame for his sensitive protrayal of femal characters, especially Medea and Phaedra. He wrote ninety-two plays in fifty years of writing, and died in 406 BCE. Eighteen of these plays have survived, among them, Electra, Medea, Hippolytus, The Cyclops, Helena, The Bacchae, The Phoenician Women and Orestes . His plays reject simple answers, express belief in the dignity of the individual, and speak of the oppression of women an dslaves. He faulted sexual passion for causing great human sorrow. He is probably the most tragic of the ancient tragic dramatists who appeals more to human emotions than to religion. Hippolytus is one of Euripides' most successful plays and was first performed in 428 B.C.E. Resources: The following link gives some biographical information on Euripides. It part of the

Euripides, c.480-406 B.C. Of the nearly 80 dramas he wrote after he abandoned painting for literature, we have only 18 complete tragedies of Euripides. He won the tragic prize only five times and died at the court of Archelaus, king of Macedonia. He did not take much take part in public life. In politics, he was a moderate who approved of democracy but not demagogues. The probable order of his plays is Alcestis Medea Hippolytus Hecuba Andromache Supplices Heraclidae Troades Helena Phoenissae , and Orestes . The Bacchae and Iphigenia in Aulis were put on the Athenian stage only after the death of Euripides. It is uncertain to what period belonged his Ion Hercules Furens Iphigenia in Tauris Electra , and Cyclops Euripides' skill as a playwright is of the highest order he could construct exciting plots and had an unerring instinct for the "situation." His popularity increased after his death and his plays were "revived" more frequently than those of either Aeschylus or Sophocles.

84. Euripides, Greece, Ancient History euripides (c.480406BC). euripides saw himself as a misunderstood writerand was often criticised by people like Aristophanes (The Frogs). http://www.in2greece.com/english/historymyth/history/ancient/euripides.htm

Euripides (c.480-406BC) One of the most important Greek dramatists, Euripides was born in Salamis on the day of the great battle between the Greeks and the Persians (Sept. 23). He got a thorough education, and his first play entered the Athenian drama festivals in 454BC, without success though. Twelve years later he won the first prize, and was to win a total of five prizes in his life. Euripides saw himself as a misunderstood writer and was often criticised by people like Aristophanes (The Frogs). He kept to himself and did not involve himself with politics. Influenced by the Sophists and Protagoras, Anaxagoras and Socrates, Eurupides wrote about the Greek legends and myths in an everyday language and without traditional religious and moral values. Euripides wanted to make his characters as people really were, not what they should be. He was also interested in the individual, rather than the gods and heroes. Many of his protagonists were female characters. He was very famous in his time, but not exceedingly popular. The writer ended his days at the court of the Macedonian king Archelaos, where he accidentally was killed by the kings' hunting dogs.

Study Guide For Euripides' Medea Last updated 12 August 1999 by Robin Mitchell-Boyask , Dept. of Classics, Temple University There is an on-line text at the Perseus Project web site, with links to explain people and places if you need more information. Another version of the myth of Medea and Jason can be found in Pindar's Fourth Pythian Ode, which you can read Pindar's Pythian 4 Hypotheses and Selected Scholia to Euripides' Medea The Fragments of Neophron's Medea Images of the myth Medea boiling the ram with the daughters of Pelias Medea rejuvenating Jason or Aeson Jason and the Calydonian Boar Hunt Medea and the Argonauts Summary and questions Medea, a barbarian witch, having betrayed her family to help her lover Jason win the Golden Fleece, now finds him courting another woman, the daughter of King Creon of Corinth and a 'real Greek'. After failing to persuade Jason to return to her, she decid es to kill her rival with a gift of poisoned clothing. She also decides to kill her children. King Aegeus of Athens stumbles along in search of a cure for his childlessness. He agrees to grant her asylum should she need it. She escapes from Jason at the e nd of the play on a dragon-drawn chariot given to her by her grandfather Helius, the sun god. With Powell's chapter on the Argonauts in mind, consider Euripides' use of Jason. How does Euripides fulfill or confound your expectations of these myths. Compare him to other heroes we have studied. Does he seem heroic? What is virtuous or sleazy about him? What specifically has he done wrong?What motivates Jason? Note that he only refers to their children as his.

Euripides born c. BC , Athens [Greece], died 406, Macedonia Last of classical Athens' three great tragic dramatists, following Aeschylus and Sophocles Euripides was the son of Mnesarchus (or Mnesarchides) and Cleito; there is indirect evidence that his family was middle-class. The general impression of Euripides left by tradition is of a figure austere and unconvival. He was accustomed to sit in a cave looking out to sea, a habit considered eccentric by his more sociable contemporaries. He took almost no part in Athens' public affairs. He was passionately interested in ideas, however, and he associated with Anaxagoras and other philosophers of his time. His acquaintance with new ideas brought him restlessness rather than conviction, and his questioning attitude toward the traditional Greek religion is reflected in many of his plays. Euripides was first chosen to compete in the dramatic festival of Dionysus in 455 BC , and he won his first victory in 441. In all he competed on 22 occasions (four plays at each). In 408 he left Athens to live at the court of Archelaus , king of Macedonia, who was a noted patron of the arts. The fewness of his victories at the Dionysiac festivals, four in his lifetime and one posthumous, suggests some lack of appreciation.

FROM THE LOEB CLASSICAL LIBRARY EURIPIDES Volume I. Cyclops. Alcestis. Medea Translated by David Kovacs One of antiquity's greatest poets, Euripides (ca. 485-406 B.C. ) has been prized in every age for the pathos, terror, surprising plot twists, and intellectual probing of his dramatic creations. He wrote nearly ninety plays, of which eighteen have come down to us (plus a play of unknown authorship long included with his works). In this new Loeb Classical Library edition of Euripides, David Kovacs presents a freshly edited Greek text and an accurate and graceful translation with explanatory notes. Cyclops is a satyr play, the only complete example of this genre to survive. Alcestis tells the story of a woman who agreesin order to save her husband's lifeto die in his place. Medea is the quintessential tragedy of revenge: Medea kills her own children, as well as their father's new wife, to punish him for desertion. OTHER HARVARD BOOKS BY EURIPIDES Volume II.

July 23, 2001 Name: Euripides Age: Four years old Gender: Male Kind: Cat Home: Gray, Maine, USA E uripides (after the playwright) was selected from the animal shelter for his cuteness. When he came home he went on a hunger strike. After ten days, the vet recommended force feeding, which we did using a syringe. A couple of tastes and he remembered how good it was to eat again. Euripides is an indoor cat, but his picture shows him out on the porch for his supervised walk around the house, and to get his picture taken. While inside, he likes to jump up high to catch plastic bottle rings and any moths which have found their way indoors. He is an avid reader, and immediately sits on anything with writing that you might begin to look at. Someday we would like to get Euripides a friend, but we are just a bit worried that he will go on another hunger strike. Find out how your pet could be Cat of the Day.

All hail! most beauteous Artemis, lovelier far than all the daughters of Olympus! HIPPOLYTUS (speaking) For thee, O mistress mine, I bring this woven wreath, culled from a virgin meadow, where nor shepherd dares to herd his flock nor ever scythe hath mown, but o'er the mead unshorn the bee doth wing its way in spring; and with the dew from rivers drawn purity that garden tends. Such as know no cunning lore, yet in whose nature self-control, made perfect, hath a home, these may pluck the flowers, but not the wicked world. Accept, I pray, dear mistress, mine this chaplet from my holy hand to crown thy locks of gold; for I, and none other of mortals, have this high guerdon, to be with thee, with thee converse, hearing thy voice, though not thy face beholding.

The centre of the scene represents a portico with columns and a large double-door. To the left are the women's quarters, to the right the guest rooms. The centre doors of the Palace slowly open inwards, and Apollo comes out. In his left hand he carries a large unstrung golden bow. He moves slowly and majestically, turns, and raises his right hand in salutation to the Palace.) APOLLO DWELLING of Admetus, wherein I, a God, deigned to accept the food of serfs! The cause was Zeus. He struck Asclepius, my son, full in the breast with a bolt of thunder, and laid him dead. Then in wild rage I slew the Cyclopes who forge the fire of Zeus. To atone for this my Father forced me to labour as a hireling for a mortal man; and I came to this country, and tended oxen for my host. To this hour I have protected him and his. I, who am just, chanced on the son of Pheres, a just man, whom I have saved from Death by tricking the Fates. The Goddesses pledged me their faith Admetus should escape immediate death if, in exchange, another corpse were given to the Under-Gods. One by one he tested all his friends, and even his father and the old mother who bad brought him forth-and found none that would die for him and never more behold the light of day, save only his wife. Now, her spirit waiting to break loose, she droops upon his arm within the house; this is the day when she must die and render up her life.

The Greek tragedies were originally written and produced for theatrical competitions, and the winning team in the tragic competition would receive a goat to feast on. The word "tragedy" is thus derived from the Greek language word "tragodiai," meaning "goat-songs".
