Über Die Iphigenie Auf Tauris

Über die Iphigenie auf Tauris

by Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller's "Iphigenie auf Tauris" is a classic German play that draws inspiration from Greek mythology, particularly the story of Iphigenia, the daughter of Agamemnon, who was sacrificed by her father to appease Artemis. In this rendition, Iphigenia is transported to the land of the Taurians, where she becomes the high priestess of Artemis. The play explores themes of fate, family, and redemption as Iphigenia is forced to navigate complex ethical dilemmas, ultimately leading to a resolution that embodies the power of human compassion and understanding.
