QR code
"The Rhesus of Euripides" by Euripides is an Athenian tragedy with disputed authorship since antiquity. Set during the Trojan War, the play unfolds over a single night when Greek warriors infiltrate the Trojan camp. King Rhesus of Thrace arrives late to aid the Trojans, but his fate becomes entangled with Greek spies Odysseus and Diomedes, who prowl the darkness with deadly intent. Accusations of treachery follow a brutal attack, culminating in divine
intervention that promises an unexpected resurrection. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
