Summary "Obras dramáticas de Eurípides (1 de 3): Hécuba, Hipólito, Las Fenicias..." is a collection of dramatic works attributed to Euripides, likely written in the 5th century BC. This anthology includes several of Euripides' significant tragedies that explore complex themes of human suffering, fate, and moral ambiguity, primarily focusing on characters from mythological backgrounds, including Hécuba, the former queen of Troy. The opening of Hécuba presents a tragic narrative following the aftermath of the fall of Troy, centering on Hécuba, who grieves the losses of her children, Polidoro and Políxena, amidst betrayal and impending sacrifice. As the Greeks prepare to make Políxena a sacrificial offering to appease the spirit of Achilles, Hécuba's despair becomes palpable. The scene delves into her frantic emotional state, her pleas to Odysseus for mercy, and the harrowing family tragedies that underline both personal and collective suffering in the wake of war. The play sets a tone of impending doom, marked by themes of vengeance, the brutality of fate, and the quest for dignity in the face of overwhelming loss. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
