- Iphigenia in Tauris (Goethe)
"Iphigenia in Tauris" ( _de. Iphigenie auf Tauris) is a reworking by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe of the ancient Greek tragedy "Iphigeneia in Tauris" by Euripides.
Goethe wrote his first version of the play in six weeks, and it was first performed on April 6, 1779 in prose form. He rewrote it in 1781, again in prose, and finally in 1786 in verse form. He took the manuscript of "Iphigenia in Tauris" with him on his famous Italian Journey.
