Suppliant Women, a play by Euripides, explores the tragic reading of politics in the contemporary world. Manolopoulos offers a psychoanalytic assessment of the play's key themes, examining the phenomenon of hubris in public life through its transformation in tragic poetry. The book further explores the connections between the foundations of the polis and the integration of mourning and the feminine core of existence. It also examines how scholars who study the play align with psychoanalysis in understanding the psychic and social reality of politics. This insightful book provides a deeper understanding of the pathological modes of mental functioning that manifest in political contexts.
