This book examines the tragedies of Euripides and Scipione Maffei, focusing on the character of Merope, a grieving mother who has lost her husband and children to the machinations of a tyrant. The author delves into the ways in which Euripides and Maffei portray Merope's emotions, highlighting the differences in their interpretations of her character. The author argues that Maffei's Merope is more fully developed, as she is depicted as a complex and multifaceted individual who struggles with her grief, her desire for revenge, and her love for her remaining child. In contrast, Euripides' Merope is seen as a more passive and one-dimensional character, driven primarily by her desire for revenge. Ultimately, the book argues that Maffei's portrayal of Merope is more nuanced and sympathetic, allowing readers to connect with her on a deeper level.
