Ex quo Volgangus Goethius Euripidis Iphigeniam nostri acvi ingenio accommodatam in sccnam cmisit, Fridericus aulcm Schillerus rocenlioris historiae argumeutis imitari Graccorum tragocdias studuit, ex parte via videbatur monstrata esse quam ingredercntur qui posthac essent tragocdias scripturi. Non exstitit tamen qui rem inchoatam perficeret: quippe nec satis cognitae erant leges Graecae tragoediae, et deterrcbat chori usus, quem Goelhius scite effugerat choricis partibus in Iphigeniam translatis. Nuper demum ipsa Graeca tragocdia laudabili conatu in theatrum producta, quamquam in potissimis quibusdam rebus erratum crat, tamen ita hominibus ostendit quanta vis sit antiquac simplicitatis, ut etiam qui novitate primo stupuerant tardiores et hebetiores animi, mox incredibiliter se commotos esse fatcrentur. Iam vero audimus etiam integram illam trilogiam, quae sola servata est, in brevius contractam theatre traditum iri: quam in patriam linguara transferre iussum Ioannem Franzium quum videam auctoritatc 0. Mülleri ct I. Gust. Droysenii permotum adscivisse quae hi viri incredibilia commenti sunt, operac pretium duxi de re scenica in istis Iragocdiis pauca disserere. Accidit enim illis, ut, quum omnia quam accuratissime exornare cuperent, antiqua cum hodicrnis commutarent, putarentque, quae mine forlassc placcant, eliam Graecis ante plus quam duo annorum milia placuisse. Verum in ca re levitas ct cursim pcragratae antiquilatis oslcntatio, non peritia et studium verilalis cernilur.
