Aphrodite and Eros - the portrayal of these two gods and the depiction of their active intervention have a significant impact on the plots of numerous classical tragedies. Focussing on a selection of dramas from Aeschylus to Seneca as well as on related texts from early Greek epics to Theocritus, Ovid and Nonnus, the author demonstrates how the images of these two multifaceted gods have been transmitted and altered, at the same time that certain characteristics have been preserved. Ursula Bittrich ist Klassische Philologin und Stipendiatin der A. G. Leventis-Stiftung (Paris) in Griechenland und auf Zypern. Main description: Aphrodite und Eros - ihr Wesen und Wirken ist richtungweisend für den Handlungsablauf zahlreicher antiker Tragödien. Die Autorin zeigt an ausgewählten Dramen von Aischylos bis Seneca sowie an verwandten Texten vom frühgriechischen Epos bis hin zu Theokrit, Ovid und Nonnos, wie sich das Bild dieser beiden so facettenreichen Gottheiten unter Wahrung bestimmter Konstanten tradiert und gewandelt hat.
