What is it about?
This article discusses the two names of the Trojan prince who is called both Paris and Alexandros. It argues that there is no difference of nuance between the two names in either Homer or Euripides, but also that the very fact that he has two names is exploited by Helen in her speech in Euripides' Troades (lines 941-2).
