Euripides stands as the last of the great tragedians of classical Athens, distinguished by his profound psychological insight and realistic portrayal of human suffering. His plays often challenged prevailing myths and traditions, exploring the complex inner lives and moral quandaries of his characters. Unlike his predecessors, he brought a more human and relatable dimension to the tragic hero, focusing on their internal struggles. A significant portion of his dramatic output has survived, offering a rich legacy that continues to resonate with audiences through its exploration of the human condition.
