Hypsipyle (Template:Lang-grc) is a partially preserved tragedy by Euripides, about the legend of queen Hypsipyle of Lemnos, daughter of King Thoas.[1] It was one of his last and most elaborate plays.[2] It was performed c. 411–407, along with The Phoenician Women which survives in full, and the lost Antiope.[3]
Originally only known from a few fragments, knowledge of the play was greatly expanded with the publication of Oxyrhynchus Papyrus 852 in 1906. Of his lost plays, it is the one with the most extensive fragments, which amount to about a third of the play.[4][5]
Plot
The play is based on three stories of Hypsipyle's legend: the rescue of her father, her meeting with Jason and the Argonauts, and her subsequent exile from Lemnos.[6]
