Euripides, a pivotal figure in ancient drama, transformed the portrayal of mythical heroes, presenting them as relatable individuals in extraordinary situations. Born around 480 BC on Salamis Island, he initially faced pressure to pursue athletics due to a prophetic oracle. His career flourished amidst the vibrant Greek theatrical culture, competing in the City Dionysia and winning only five first prizes. Renowned for his lyrical poetry, his works continued to resonate posthumously, reflecting the tumultuous backdrop of Athens and Sparta's rivalry. He spent his final years in Macedon, where he was honored after his death around 406 BC.
