Seven years have passed since the end of the Trojan War and Menelaus, King of Sparta and husband to Helen, is making his slow and painful way home. When his ship is wrecked on the coast of Egypt he stumbles upon what seems to be his wife lingering outside the royal palace.

Medea, l'herona d'aquesta obra, es troba en una situació límit: es abandonada pel seu espos, que es casa amb la filla del rei de Corint. Medea, sentint-se enganyada i menystinguda, actua d'una manera desesperada: assassina la futura muller del seu espos i els seus dos fills. Euripides aprofita aquest personatge mitic per posasr en escena les interioritats emocionals d'una dona humiliada. Amb una visio que ultrapassava el seu temps, Euripides dona vida a una Medea que reclamava els mateixos drets que tenen els homes.

Impregnat d'una vivíssima frescor i escrit en un to graciós i ame, El Ciclop recrea la vella narració homerica de l'estada d'Ulisses a l'illa del gegant Polifem. Tal com llegim tambe a l'Odissea, l'heroi pot fugir d'alli gracies a un bot de vi que duia amb ell. L'accio d'Els satirs rastrejadors, obra molt mes simple, ens posa a la recerca d'un ramat de vaques que Hermes, el prodigios nounat, ha robat al mateix Apol.lo. Els grecs deien del drama satiric que era una "tragedia en broma". I es que amb aquestes peces l'espectador reprenia l'ale despres d'aquelles aclaparadores jornades teatrals bo i rient amb els mites i personatges que els havien angoixat l'anim durant les anteriors representacions de tragedies.
