Cyclops (play)
The ''Cyclops'' (, ''Kyklōps'') is an Ancient Greek satyr play by Euripides, the only complete satyr play that has survived antiquity. It is a comical burlesque-like play on the same story depicted in book nine of Homer's ''Odyssey''.
==Background==
Odysseus has lost his way on the voyage home from the Trojan War. He and his hungry crew make a stop in Sicily at Mount Aetna, which is inhabited by Cyclopes. They come upon the Satyrs and their father Silenus, who have been separated from their god Dionysus and enslaved by a Cyclops (named Polyphemus in the ''Odyssey''). These characters are not contained in the ''Odysseys version of the event. Their addition provides much of the humor due to their cowardly and drunken behavior.
