Synopsis

The Ion of Euripides is a play written by the ancient Greek playwright, Euripides. This particular edition of the play was translated by F. A. Paley in 1880. The Ion is a tragedy that tells the story of a young woman named Creusa, who is the daughter of the Athenian king, Erechtheus. Creusa is abandoned as a baby and raised by the god Apollo in his temple at Delphi. When she reaches adulthood, Creusa goes to Athens to seek out her true identity and meets Ion, a young man who works in the temple of Apollo. The two develop a romantic relationship, but their love is threatened by the revelation of Creusa's true identity and the political machinations of the Athenian court. The Ion is a complex and thought-provoking play that explores themes such as identity, family, and the power of the gods. This edition includes Paley's translation of the text and provides readers with a glimpse into the world of ancient Greek drama.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
