Reading The Bacchae | Alexandria
Read The Bacchae by Euripides. Exposing civilization's fragile veneer, Euripides reveals how swiftly order crumbles when primal forces are denied - a warning as relevant now as in ancient Greece. Beyond mere festival revelry, the play confronts our need to integrate shadow aspects rather than suppress them. The shocking twist? True wisdom means embracing, not controlling, life's chaotic elements.
