Medea and Other Plays

Euripides at his most devastating. This Penguin collection brings together some of the ancient Greek master's most powerful tragedies—Medea's searing revenge, the psychological unravelling in Hippolytus, and Electra's dark family drama. These are plays that invented psychological realism, exploring rage, betrayal, and passion with an intensity that still cuts deep. Perfect for theatre lovers, classics students, or anyone who wants to understand where Western drama truly began.
