Euripides. Bakkhai
Oxford University Press, 2001. — 160 p. — (Greek Tragedy in New Translations). — ISBN: 0195125983
Transl. by Reginald Gibbons, introduction and notes by Charles Segal.
Regarded by many as Euripides' masterpiece, Bakkhai is a powerful examination of religious ecstasy and the resistance to it. A call for moderation, it rejects the temptation of pure reason as well as pure sensuality, and is a staple of Greek tragedy, representing in structure and thematics an exemplary model of the classic tragic elements.
