Bacchae And Other Plays by Euripides
A collection of classical dramas exploring the perilous tension between human authority and divine will, the devastation and endurance born of war, and the unstable nature of identity and truth. Across these plays, disbelief and hubris invite catastrophe, captives and exiles seek survival and recognition, and rulers confront the limits of power, while a satyr interlude punctures pretension with earthy humor. Together they trace the consequences of passion and piety in a world governed by capricious gods and fragile mortals.
