Digging into the Greek life — CU scholars interpret rare Euripidean find
from Colorado Matters
When archaeologists in Egypt discovered a papyrus in 2022 that appears to hold fragments of work from the ancient Greek tragedian Euripides, it set in motion a chain of events that culminates in Boulder this weekend. A pair of scholars from the University of Colorado Boulder, Yvona Trnka-Amrhein and John Gibert will be part of a symposium centered around the find. After the discovery of the papyrus, the duo have worked on deciphering and interpreting the text, which they say contains portions from two of his plays.
