The Iphigeneia at Aulis of Euripides is a tragedy play that was written by the ancient Greek playwright Euripides. The story is set during the Trojan War and focuses on the Greek commander Agamemnon, who is unable to set sail for Troy due to a lack of wind. An oracle reveals that he must sacrifice his daughter Iphigeneia to the goddess Artemis in order to appease her and gain favorable winds. Agamemnon is torn between his duty as a commander and his love for his daughter, while Iphigeneia struggles to come to terms with her impending sacrifice. The play explores themes of sacrifice, duty, and the consequences of war. This edition of the play was translated into English by Arthur S. Way and was first published in 1896.With Introduction And Notes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
