Iphigenie auf Tauris. Textausgabe mit Kommentar und Materialien

Orest, sentenced to be a human sacrifice for the goddess Diana, seeks to escape. However, the radical openness of Iphigenia leads the barbarian king Thoas to show mercy. A "devilishly humane" adaptation of the ancient myth, as Goethe himself described it.
