Hippolytus

I found the ending of this play very unique as it connected with the audience. I enjoyed the dramatic irony that was used as Theseus didn't know Hippolytus was innocent, but others did and couldn't say. However, because of this dramatic irony it causes Hippolytus to face the wrath of Poseidon. Although I do feel bad for Hippolytus going through the wrath and not even dying right away, I enjoyed reading Poseidon using his powers. Again I am the type of person to see the God's use their powers, so when Poseidon created an earthquake to build a giant wave against Hippolytus and had a bull chase him, I found it very interesting to read all the action. Again I do feel bad for Hippolytus, but Poseidon using his powers is pretty cool.
