Hercules is the best-known character from classical mythology.
Seneca's play Hercules Furens presents the hero at a moment of
triumph turned to tragedy. Hercules returns from his final labor,
his journey to the Underworld, and then slaughters his family in an
episode of madness. This play exerted great influence on
Shakespeare and other Renaissance tragedians, and also inspired
contemporary adaptations in film, TV, and comics. Aimed at
undergraduates and non-specialists, this companion introduces the
play's action, historical context and literary tradition, critical
reception, adaptation, and performance tradition.
