Let’s Talk About Myths, Baby! Greek & Roman Mythology Retold

A Bit of Father & Son Fighting Over… Who Deserves to Live (Euripides’ Alcestis Part 2)

36 min • 19 april 2022

The eponymous character dies. And then what? The tragicomic play by Euripides that turns everything on its head, and then some.

CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.

Sources: Euripides' Alcestis, found in The Greek Plays, introduction and translation by Rachel Kitzinger.
