    Euripides' searching, poetic voice probes the waste and suffering of war in these plays set in the wake of the Trojan defeat to reflect the playwright's changing attitude to the real war between Athens and Sparta in his own day, 4th century BC. Hecuba is a play of ghosts and shadowy death; The Women of Troy is a searing indictment of the aftermath of defeat; Iphigenia at Aulis shows a human tragedy at the heart of the mechanics of war; and Cyclops is a satyr play which offers a comic antidote to the tragedies.
