LXI: Punishing Pentheus, the Frantic & Violent Women of Euripides’ Bacchae (Part 1)
Let's Talk About Myths, Baby! Greek & Roman Mythology Retold - Podcast tekijän mukaan Liv Albert and iHeartPodcasts
Dionysus, he's quite the god. Then, a detailed and dramatic telling of Euripides' Bacchae, one of the most violent plays of Greek tragedy.
CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
