There is only one story in which he goes to Olympus where he refounds the whole world to a new religion.(Tragedy is a losing phase). Hippolytus-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Theseus puts a curse on the son of Hippolytus and it becomes clear that he is Poseidons son. In Athenian plays the hero and the wife are played by the same person (doubling of roles). Aphrodite is mad because Hippolytus is one sided and is in love with Artemis. Aphrodite, and Thedra isplayed by Artemis actor. Thedra wants to be Artemis and be in love with Hippolytus. She does not want to live in the liminal world. She wants to be Artemis but is forced to be Aphrodite. This all leads to the similar solution of fasting. Theseus cannot have a Minoan wife, matrimonial son, and horse relatives. The remedy is that Thedra commits suicide and Hippolytus is dragged to death by horses. Human is thecivilized form of worship.
