Abstract

This paper considers what the indirect tradition of one passage of Euripides’ Hippolytus can teach us both about the ancient reception of that play and about the reading of Euripides’ plays more generally in antiquity and Byzantium. The case study chosen is Hippolytus’ address to Artemis as he dedicates a pure garland to the goddess.
