Synopsis "Rhesus (in English)"
Euripides is known in literature & fiction circles as a Greek tragedian of classical Athens. Euripides is one of the few whose dramas & plays have survived. Ancient & medieval scholars have attributed 95 dramas & plays to Euripides, of which 19 are known to have survived more or less complete. Euripides is identified with theatrical innovations that have profoundly influenced drama & plays down to modern times. He was unique among the writers of ancient & medieval Athens for the sympathy he demonstrated towards all victims of society, including women. Euripides' Rhesus is an ancient & medieval Greek tragedy, which takes place during the Trojan War, on the night when Odysseus and Diomedes sneak into the Trojan camp. Rhesus, the neighboring king of Thrace, arrives to assist the Trojans. Rhesus is a short ancient & medieval drama & play that is most notable in comparison with the Iliad but it is not without controversy. The authorship of Rhesus has been disputed since the 17th century. Many literature & fiction scholars challenge the aesthetic grounds of the Greek tragedy as well as the drama & play's vocabulary, style, and technique. However, other literature & fiction scholars fully credit Euripides with authorship of Rhesus while noting that the ancient & medieval Greek tragedy was written by a younger less-developed Euripides.
