Recreating the spirit of classical antiquity, Racine draws upon Euripides's tragedy of Hippolytus. Phaedra falls in love with her stepson, Hippolytus, with tragic consequences. In Racine's version, after being accused of rape and rejected by his father, Hippolytus is killed by a sea-monster. Phaedra then commits suicide.
