Building on her previous works, Shirley Darcus Sullivan takes an in-depth look at Euripides' use of psychological terms - phr_n, nous, prapides, thumos, kardia, kear, and psych_ - and compares his usage to that of both earlier and contemporary poets, most notably Aeschylus and Sophocles. Sullivan discusses each term separately, gathering them from Euripides' seventeen extant tragedies and from fragments of other plays. She begins with a broad look at how both earlier and contemporary poets used the various terms, moving on to a detailed discussion of Euripides' own usage, from his most often used phr_n to his new use of psych_. "Euripides' Use of Psychological Terminology" will be of interest to scholars of classics, in particular those in fifth-century Greek classics, as well as to those interested in psychology and its presentation in ancient literature.
