Resumen de La Hipsípila de Estacio leía a Eurípides

María Consuelo Álvarez Morán, Rosa María Iglesias Montiel

• The fragmentary condition of Euripides' Hypsipyle makes it difficult to establish to what an extent it was used as source by Statius for the Nemean passage in Thebaid IV and V; but the order of events, the nuances and alterations introduced in his epic by the Neapolitan poet reveal that he wanted to use the Europidean tragedy whether to follow it closely or to improve it, making his innovations more outstanding.
