It is a suspenseful drama set on the Black Sea coast in what is now Crimea, which explores themes of family loyalty, Greeks and barbarians, and the nature of the gods. The plot combines an unrecognized meeting between Iphigénie, now a priestess of Artemis among the Tauri, and her brother Orestes, who, with his friend Pylades, has been captured and brought to her for sacrifice, with an exciting escape attempt for all three, ultimately brought about by divine intervention. This edition includes a full Introduction to the literary and production aspects of the play, while the Commentary elucidates problems of language as well as interpretation. These combine to make the play fully accessible to intermediate-level undergraduates and graduate students wishing to read it in the original Greek.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom ancient times to the present, Euripides' Iphigénie among the Tauri has been a widely read and influential work.
