compound adjectives, ἡλιόβλητος, οἰνωπός, Euripides’ BacchaeAbstract
In his plays, Euripides tends to use compound adjectives that are full of meaning, but sometimes, since the lexemes that compose them may have different senses, it is difficult to translate them including all their nuances. It is important to know and reflect those nuances in translation, as far as possible. This work deals with two of these compound adjectives that appear in Bacchae: ἡλιόβλητος and οἰνωπός. Scholars disagree on their translation and interpretation.
