	Hecabe 1, Greek Mythology Link.
		Hecabe 1's first son was Hector 1, but when her second son Paris was about to be born, she dreamt that she had brought forth a firebrand which spread over the whole city, and burned it.
		Hecabe 1's daughter Cassandra survived the massacre at Troy, but instead she was humiliated by Ajax 2, who in a fit of cowardice, raped her.
		Hecabe 1 obtained such solemn words, the safe-conduct for the messenger, and the leave to carry out her revenge, after having reminded Agamemnon that it is a good man's duty to uphold the right, and punish wickedness always and everywhere.

		Hecabe, the Trojan King Priam's widow, is to become the slave of Odysseus, a man she abhors.
		Hecabe's younger daughter Polyxena is sacrificed at the tomb of the Greek hero Achilles as an offering to his corpse.

	CLAS3135 Greek Tragedy: Euripides Hecabe
		No dominant central figure (as Ajax, Heracles): powerless captives (Hecabe, Polyxena) and those with power over them (Odysseus, Agamemnon)—but consider role-reversals: the powerless take control of their fate (in different ways), the powerful are constrained by difficult situations.
		Hecabe’s initiative: the ‘dangerous woman’ stereotype is reinforced by 886-7: the daughters of Danaus (see Aeschylus Suppliants) and the Lemnian women (see e.g.

	Medea and Other Plays: Medea, Hecabe, Electra, Heracles - By: Philip Vellacott - Christianbook.com
		The last of three great Athenian dramatists, and during his lifetime perhaps the most controversial, Euripides was the first playwright to use the chorus as a commentator; the first to put contemporary language into the mouths of heroes; and the first to interpret human suffering without reference to the wisdom of gods.
		Reading plays such as these, it is not difficult to appreciate Aristotle's admiration of him as the most "tragic" of the Greek poets.
