Abstract

This unique volume is an accessible yet in-depth narratological study of Euripides' Alcestis. It contextualizes the play in terms of its reception by the original audience, locating the intricate narrative tropes of the plot in the dynamics of fifth-century Athenian mythology and religion. It will reward readers interested in Greek literature and especially Euripidean tragedy, as well as in modern literary theory and especially narratology.
