Goethe's Iphigenie Auf Tauris

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. It might not prove uninteresting in our consideration of the sources of Goethe's Iphigenie to begin at the very begin ning: to go far back of the Orestes and Iphigenia legends as they are presented to us in the comparatively late works Of the, Greek dramatists, and investigate the primitive mythological concepts involved in the cycle of Tantalus and Atreus. There is certainly much to be said for so thorough a method of procedure.
