Born, according to the legend in exile and fated to die in exile, Euripides in whatever light one regards him, is a man of curious and ironic history.

As a thinker he is even to this day treated almost as a personal enemy by scholars of orthodox and conformist minds defended idealized and sometimes transformed beyond recognition by various champions of rebellion and the free intellect.
