Originally published in 1953, this book presents a concise study regarding the nature of Euripidean tragedy. The main part of the text discusses the conflict between Euripides' presentation of the gods and his own religious beliefs, putting forward the view that the plots of his plays are 'fantasies' without an intended symbolic content.
