The Iphigenia in Tauris: Of Euripides (Classic Reprint) by Euripides Euripides (Paperback / softback, 2016)

Excerpt from The Iphigenia in Tauris: Of Euripides Like all the great Greek legends, the Iphigenia myths take many varying forms. They are all of them, in their essence, conjectural restorations, by poets or other 'wise men, ' of supposed early history. According to the present play, Agamemn, when just about to sail with all the powers of Greece against Troy, was bound by weather at Aulis. The medicine-man Cal Chas explained that Artemis demanded the sacrifice of his daughter, Iphigenia, who was then at home with her mother, Clytemnestra. Odysseus and Agamemn sent for the maiden on the pretext that she was to be married to the famous young hero, Achilles; she was brought to Aulis and treacherously slaughtered - or, at least, so people thought.
