Euripides, a pivotal figure in ancient Greek drama, transformed the portrayal of mythical heroes by depicting them as relatable individuals in extraordinary situations. Born around 480 BC on Salamis Island, he initially pursued athletics but ultimately found his calling in theatre. Competing in the City Dionysia, he achieved only modest recognition during his lifetime, winning first prize five times. His lyrical prowess is evident in works like Medea, where his plays resonate musically. Despite falling out of favor in Athens, he found refuge in Macedon, where he was honored after his death around 406 BC.
