  This new translation brings to life the tragedian described by Aristotle as `the most tragic of the poets'. In his tragedies Euripides places his characters under the pressure of intolerable circumstances, revealing them, to use his own words, `as they are'. Supremely responsive to the lot of women, these plays give voice to a howl of protest against the world in which we live.
