Description
About the Book
This collection of three plays by Euripides includes: "Alkestis", a romance with parallels to Shakespeare's "The Winter's Tale"; "Helen", an alternative version of the myth of the Trojan War.Book Synopsis
Published in the new Methuen Classical Dramatists series
The three plays in this volume straddle the borders between comedy and tragedy. Alkestis is a moving "romance" with death; it has parallels to Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale. Helen, an alternative version of the tragic portrayal of the Trojan War, shows Helen "relocated in a delightful comedy" (Observer) - as an innocent victim of her own beauty, hidden in Egypt by the gods while her image has been abducted by Paris. In Ion, a father who thought he was childless discovers his son, and a son who thought he was motherless finds his mother.
