The Iphigenia in Tauris of Euripides is a play written by the ancient Greek playwright Euripides. This book, published in 1915, is a translation of the original Greek text into English. The play tells the story of Iphigenia, the daughter of Agamemnon, who was sacrificed by her father to appease the goddess Artemis during the Trojan War. However, in this play, Iphigenia is revealed to have been saved by the goddess and taken to Tauris, where she serves as a priestess. The plot revolves around Iphigenia's attempts to escape Tauris with the help of her brother Orestes and his friend Pylades. The play explores themes of family, sacrifice, and the power of the gods. It is considered one of Euripides' most famous works and has been adapted numerous times in literature and theater.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
