I have a 7 page paper due on Friday afternoon for my Greek class. Here's the thesis:

The conflict in Euripides' Hippolytos is not derived from any actual misdeeds on the parts of either Hippolytos or Phaedra, rather it is the mere perception of disloyalty to the father in a patriarchal society from which the conflict arises.

Go.

Man, that picture gets me every time.

Anyway, The Hippolytos is a tragedy written by Euripides in the 5th Century BC. In it, Hippolytos is believed to be having an affair with his stepmother, Phaedra. The stepmother goes nuts, kills herself while Hippolytos and the dad, Theseus, are away (the dad was exiled because he killed his first wife and a couple of their kids), then the dad comes back and is pretty pissed at his son.

Nah, it's alright. Anyway, I doubt it would help. When I say "reading," I mean in the original Greek.
