Goethes Iphigenie Auf Tauris: Edited With Introduction, Repetitional Exercises, Notes and Vocabulary (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book explores the portrayal of Iphigenia and Orestes in Goethe's and Euripides' literary retellings of ancient Greek myths surrounding the descendants of Agamemnon. The author provides a comparative analysis of the two plays, examining themes such as human suffering, guilt, and the search for redemption. Through a study of the characters' motivations and actions, the book sheds light on the evolution of these themes in Western literature. The author argues that Goethe's portrayal of these characters reveals a shift from the fatalistic and divine retribution of Greek tragedy to a more nuanced exploration of individual responsibility and the power of compassion. By delving into the depths of these enduring literary creations, the author offers fresh insights into the human condition and the enduring relevance of these timeless stories.
