Euripides was the most intellectual poet of his time. He wrote many plays. He's known for reshaping the formal structure of Athenian tragedy by portraying strong female characters and intelligent slaves. He also humanized and popularized Greek tragedy and was responsible for bringing tragedy closer to the experience of ordinary citizens.
