Iphigenia in Tauris is a play written by the famous German poet and writer, Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe. The play is a retelling of the ancient Greek myth of Iphigenia, who was sacrificed by her father Agamemnon to appease the goddess Artemis during the Trojan War. In Goethe's version, Iphigenia has been saved by the goddess and is now living in Tauris, where she serves as a priestess. The play explores themes of redemption, forgiveness, and the power of love.This edition of the play includes original poems by Goethe, as well as a translation from the German into English. The poems are thought to be inspired by the play and explore similar themes.
