Women in Euripides' Alcestis, Medea, Andromache, and Bacchae

Euripides is somewhat strange about the depiction of women in the drama. His female character killed people for revenge and died for jealousy and murder. Alcestis and Andromache Euripides produced a classic heroic female character. Women of Medea and The Bacchae are not typical heroines, they are the same women's liberation theme as women of Alcestis and Andromache. Information on Alcestis is simple, but the other three plays cover the true intentions of the people they created.

Euripides has 19 scripts left. Among these plays, the most famous are Medea, Hippolytus, Bacae. Rohce is sometimes thought to be written by the work of Euripides' son, or the Euripides drama. Euripides promote the limits of the kind of tragedy, and many of his play elements are more typical than comedy's tragedy. For example, his play "Alcestis" is often classified as "problem drama" or even as a tragedy, not a true tragedy due to comedy elements and their happy endings.

Euripides' Bacchae and Medea have big binary opposition between the two plays. The dual opposition is two opposite words such as good or bad. A binary confrontation is used to present contrast aspects (Marvin, 1). In Baccae and Medea, Euripides uses a binary opposition to emphasize the central theme. The opposite of the important binaries are men and women, foreigners and citizens, and gods and men. The contrast between men and women is an important opposition between the two plays.
