The Hippolytus of Euripides is a play written by the ancient Greek playwright Euripides. This edition of the play, published in 1853, includes English notes to aid in understanding the text. The play tells the story of Hippolytus, a young man who is devoted to the goddess Artemis and refuses to worship Aphrodite, the goddess of love. This angers Aphrodite, who seeks revenge by causing Hippolytus to fall in love with his stepmother, Phaedra. The play explores themes such as love, betrayal, and the consequences of defying the gods. The English notes included in this edition provide explanations of the play's language and references to Greek mythology, making it accessible to readers who may not be familiar with these topics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
