This article is concerned with the first stasimon of Euripides' Hippolytos, which takes the form of a hymn to Eros. Among the aspects dealt with are: a) the structure of the choral ode (also in relation with the aretalogical hymns in S. Ant. 781-800 e Tr. 497-530); b) its dramatic function within the play, and connections with the hymn to Artemis in the prologue (vv. 61-72) and the hymn to Aphrodites and Eros in the last choral song (vv. 1268-81); c) erotic topoi borrowed from lyric poetry, often modified to fit the tragic context; d) analysis of the mythological examples of Iole and Semele in the second strophic pair.

Abstract
This article is concerned with the first stasimon of Euripides' Hippolytos, which takes the form of a hymn to Eros. Among the aspects dealt with are: a) the structure of the choral ode (also in relation with the aretalogical hymns in S. Ant. 781-800 e Tr. 497-530); b) its dramatic function within the play, and connections with the hymn to Artemis in the prologue (vv. 61-72) and the hymn to Aphrodites and Eros in the last choral song (vv. 1268-81); c) erotic topoi borrowed from lyric poetry, often modified to fit the tragic context; d) analysis of the mythological examples of Iole and Semele in the second strophic pair.
