Medea and other plays / Euripides ; translated by John Davie ; introduction and notes by Richard Rutherford.
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 a reference to gods, Euripides (484 - 407 BC) made his characters speak in human terms and face the consequences of their actions.
