    In the play The Bacchae written by Euripides‚ many different causes have been identified for the destruction of Pentheus‚ King of Thebes‚ and cousin to the god Dionysus.

He is victorious at the end of the story for multiple reasons-he has endurance‚ he is never defeated‚ and he does not lose faith throughout the entire story. Santiago’s ability to endure the harsh life he lives gives even more meaning
