| | MSN Encarta - Euripides |
| | Euripides’ plays were criticized for their unconventionality, for their natural dialogue (his heroes and princes spoke the language of everyday life), and for their independence from traditional religious and moral values. | | | Euripides was austere and considered himself misunderstood by his contemporaries—a conclusion not without foundation, for he was constantly the object of attack by Athenian writers of comedy. | | | Aristophanes in particular made him a subject of a satire in his play The Frogs (405 bc). |
