"Hippolyte" and "Bacchantes" are two outstanding tragedies of the ancient Greek playwright Euripides, which are united by the theme of divine revenge. Hippolytus unfolds a dramatic story arising from the intrigue of Athena, the Queen of the Amazons, and the enchanting Artemis. And "Bacchantes" depicted the cult of the goddess Dionysus and tells about how punishment for disbelief in God becomes inevitable. These works impressed with the contemporary relevance of their themes and deep philosophical reflections on human nature and destiny.
