Onderdeel van de uitgeversreeks(en)BevatBakchanten door Euripides
The first playwright of democracy, Euripides wrote with enduring insight and biting satire about social and political problems of Athenian life.nbsp;nbsp;In contrast to his contemporaries, he brought an exciting--and, to the Greeks, a stunning--realism to the "pure and noble form" of tragedy.nbsp;nbsp;For the first time in history, heroes and heroines on the stage were not idealized:nbsp;nbsp;as Sophocles himself said, Euripides shows people not as they ought to be, but as they actually are.

It's probably better to read a few of these plays at a time, instead of reading all ten straight through, since the style and progression of the plays is so uniform that the works might begin to blend together for you as they did for me. It's this experience that makes me rate the collection as I do, but I would also urge you to read Medea and Hippolytus, as they are among the best works that survive from the ancient Athenian dramatists.
