Note 12 — Chapter XIV · GREEK TRAGEDY AND EURIPIDES. (continued 2)

See Balaustion's Adventure. Since this chapter was first published, Mr. Browning has still further enforced his advocacy of Euripides by Aristophanes' Apology, and a version of the Hercules Furens, while the great tragic poet has found a stanch defender from the carping criticasters of the Schlegel school in Mr. Mahaffy. That excellent scholar and accomplished student of antiquity has recently published a little book on Euripides (Classical Writers, edited by J. R. Green, "Euripides." Macmillan. 1879).
