 Abstract: 
				»Other case studies based on ancient texts include Cyrino’s essay on Euripides’ Hippolytus (Chapter 13); she explores the violent way Eros is depicted in the play and how the lover’s body is represented as vulnerable to violation. Boundaries and boundedness thus become key themes, with metaphors expressing loosening and fastening for grounding the destructive power of a deity denied.«
