Synopsis
The four tragedies collected in this volume all focus on a central character, once powerful, brought down by betrayal, jealousy, guilt and hatred. The first playwright to depict suffering without reference to the gods, Euripides (c.485-407 BC) made his characters speak in human terms and face the consequences of their actions. In Medea , a woman rejected by her lover takes hideous revenge by murdering the children they both love, and Hecabe depicts the former queen of Troy, driven mad by the prospect of her daughter's sacrifice to Achilles. Electra portrays a young woman planning to avenge the brutal death of her father at the hands of her mother, while in Heracles the hero seeks vengeance against the evil king who has caused bloodshed in his family., Four plays which exemplify his interest in flawed, characters who defy the expectations of Greek society The four tragedies collected in this volume all focus on a central character, once powerful, brought down by betrayal, jealousy, guilt and hatred. The first playwright to depict suffering without reference to the gods, Euripides made his characters speak in human terms and face the consequences of their actions. In Medea, a woman rejected by her lover takes hideous revenge by murdering the children they both love, and Hecabe depicts the former queen of Troy, driven mad by the prospect of her daughter's sacrifice to Achilles. Electra portrays a young woman planning to avenge the brutal death of her father at the hands of her mother, while in Heracles the hero seeks vengeance against the evil king who has caused bloodshed in his family. Philip Vellacott's lucid translation is accompanied by an introduction, which discusses the literary background of Classical Athens and examines the distinction between instinctive and civilized behaviour.

- t***o (878)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoReceived David Benoit and George Benson CDs quickly, as described, “extremely” well packed (nice as both the CDs and their cases were in “perfect” shape - in the past I have received CDs in cracked cases that weren’t packed very well - but this time the cases were in “perfect” shape - I really appreciate), - - - great seller.Inner Motion by David Benoit (CD, 1990) & Collaboration By Earl Klugh/G Benson (N° 393911819381)
- l***- (3)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoSo first the pros. The item was packaged well and actually over packaged in fact and also the seller provides quick communication and the item was exactly as it was described. But that's where the only con starts. The original ad has the cable listed at 3 m which is roughly 10 ft, I then message him and ask him if it actually is 10 ft and he says it's 7 ft, I then get the cable and it's actually 6 and 1/2 ft, which is 2 m which is fine but it would be nice to know the actual length.Quest YIQ-X Audio Component video ,Quest Video cable 3 Meters Multicolor (N° 396180297309)
