A trachisi nők by Sophocles

"A trachisi nők" by Sophocles is an Athenian tragedy written around 450–425 BC. The play follows Deianeira, wife of the hero Heracles, who struggles with her husband's long absences and neglect. When she learns he has captured a young woman named Iole, Deianeira attempts to win back his love using what she believes is a magic charm—but the gift carries devastating consequences. This ancient drama explores themes of jealousy, deception, and the tragic fulfillment of prophecy. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
