		About 16 fragments of Euripides' lost Antiope can be placed in a debate between Zethus and Amphion, twins born to Zeus by Antiope and destined to rule Thebes.
		Although the twins apparently believe they are rustic slaves, the audience knows they are destined for greatness and will understand this program at least in part as the expression of an élite outlook.
		Far from being an activist, he can be seen as a type of élite quietist whose interests are focused too narrowly (from the perspective, say, of the Thucydidean Pericles) on his own household.
