Iphigeneia Tauriissa: Viisinäytöksinen näytelmä by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"Iphigeneia Tauriissa: Viisinäytöksinen näytelmä" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is a reworking of Euripides' ancient Greek tragedy, first performed in 1779. Rescued from sacrifice by the goddess Diana, Iphigenia now serves as her priestess in Tauris, longing for home while King Thoas seeks her hand in marriage. When two Greek strangers arrive—her brother Orestes and his friend Pylades—neither recognizes the other. Orestes carries a family curse and seeks redemption through a cryptic
oracle, while Iphigenia faces an impossible choice between duty and freedom. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
