The Trojan Women

The play humanizes the victims of war, which feels different from typical heroic narratives. Did anyone else find this perspective eye-opening or unsettling?

This emphasis adds emotional depth but also raises questions about whose stories are worth telling in wartime. Was this a conscious political statement or a reflection of his personal beliefs?

The tragic fates of the characters felt both inevitable and unresolved, which made me wonder about Euripides’ view on divine justice versus human agency.
