Euripides was one of the three great tragedians of classical Athens,
the other two being Aeschylus and Sophocles. Some ancient scholars
attributed ninety-five plays to him, of these, eighteen or nineteen
have survived complete. Euripides is identified with theatrical
innovations that have profoundly influenced drama down to modern
times, especially in the representation of traditional, mythical
heroes as ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances. This new
approach led him to pioneer developments that later writers adapted to
comedy, some of which are characteristic of romance.
