Overview
The Bacchae is an ancient Greek tragedy, written by Euripides. The tragedy is based on the Greek myth of Prince Pentheus of Thebes and his mother Agave, and their punishment by the god Dionysos. The god Dionysos appears at the beginning of the play and proclaims that he has arrived in Thebes to avenge the slander, which has been repeated by his aunts, that he is not the son of Zeus. In response, he intends to introduce Dionysian rites into the city, and he intends to demonstrate to the king, Pentheus, and to Thebes that he was indeed born a god. At the end of the play, Pentheus is torn apart by the women of Thebes and his mother Agave bears his head to her father Kadmos.
