Abstract

Was the ancient Athenian Euripides actually a proto-feminist? Euripidess writings have long been coopted and adapted by different political groups as historic evidence of their causes. This paper investigates whether this ascribed label fits the ancient writer through historic evidence and philosophical dissections of his work as it relates to the original play, Fallen, a feminist revision of Euripidess The Trojan Women.
