Specifically - and here I refer to my chapters - we wonder whether the eagles of an omen are the birds of prey in a simile, we wonder whether a Curse upon the House led to the sacrifice of Iphigeneia, we wonder that the murder robe of Agamemnon matches the cloth that was strewn before him, and we wonder that Clytemnestra shows a syndrome of sexual inversion.

Thyestes had a son with his daughter and named him Aegisthus, who went on to kill Atreus. Those who join the family seem to play a part in the curse as well, as seen in Clytemnestra when she murders her husband Agamemnon, in revenge for sacrificing their daughter, Iphigenia. There are many didactic motives in the Oresteia , one of them being the matter of moral responsibility. Ships to:. Back to home page. People Aeschylus , Aeschylus. Jung Journal: Culture and Psyche.

Seller Inventory The entirety of the play's plot is dependent upon the theme of revenge, as it is the cause of almost all of the effects within the play. Both sides of the argument stand; that because of the circumstances surrounding his actions, Agamemnon cannot be seen as morally responsible, or, no matter the circumstances, he was morally responsible for killing his daughter.

To put it differently: the dramatist heightened interest by using certain resources of language, and certain scenic conventions, as they had not been used before: namely, words that almost but not quite mean the same, annals that almost but not quite have a pattern, the wearing of elaborate costumes by the actors, and the playing of female parts by men.

Written between 408 and 406 BCE, the year of Euripides’ death, the play was first produced the following year in a trilogy with The Bacchaeand Alcmaeon in Corinth by his son, Euripides the Younger, and won the first place at the Athenian City Dionysia festival. Agamemnon Costume rendering by Jacqueline Firkins. 2 SYNOPSIS At the start of the play, Agamemnon reveals to the Old Man that his army and warships are stranded in Aulis due to a lack of sailing winds. The winds have died because Agamemnon is being punished by the goddess Artemis, whom he offended. The only way to remedy this situation is for Agamemnon to sacrifice his daughter, Iphigenia, to the goddess Artemis. Agamemnon then admits that he has sent for Iphigenia to be brought to Aulis but he has changed his mind.

Agamemnon, who led the Greeks against Troy, belonged to the House of Atreus. All of Agamemnon’s immediate family, his wife Clytemnestra, his children, Iphigenia, Orestes and Electra, were as well known as he was. His brother Menelaus was the husband of Helen, for whose sake the Trojan War was fought. The cause of all the misfortunes could be traced back to an ancestor, a King of Lydia, Tantalus. Tantalus and Niobe Tantalus was the son of Zeus and honored by the gods beyond all the mortal children of Zeus. In return for their favor he acted so atrociously that no poet ever tried to explain his conduct. He had his only son Pelops killed, boiled in a big pot, and served to the gods. The Olympians knew. They drew back from the horrible banquet and declare that they the criminal who had contrived the idea should be punished. In the underworld, he was punished to be within reach of water he cannot drink, food he cannot eat. Thus he stood forever, his undying throat always athirst, his hunger in the midst of plenty never satisfied. His son Pelops was restored to life by the gods, but they had to build a shoulder for him out of ivory for one of the goddesses, some say Demeter, some Thetis, inadvertently had eaten of the dish.

  • Divine Riddles: a Sourcebook for Greek and Roman Mythology March, 2014
    Divine Riddles: A Sourcebook for Greek and Roman Mythology March, 2014 E. Edward Garvin, Editor What follows is a collection of excerpts from Greek literary sources in translation. The intent is to give students an overview of Greek mythology as expressed by the Greeks themselves. But any such collection is inherently flawed: the process of selection and abridgement produces a falsehood because both the narrative and meta-narrative are destroyed when the continuity of the composition is interrupted. Nevertheless, this seems the most expedient way to expose students to a wide range of primary source information. I have tried to keep my voice out of it as much as possible and will intervene as editor (in this Times New Roman font) only to give background or exegesis to the text. All of the texts in Goudy Old Style are excerpts from Greek or Latin texts (primary sources) that have been translated into English. Ancient Texts In the field of Classics, we refer to texts by Author, name of the book, book number, chapter number and line number.1 Every text, regardless of language, uses the same numbering system. Homer’s Iliad, for example, is divided into 24 books and the lines in each book are numbered. Hesiod’s Theogony is much shorter so no book divisions are necessary but the lines are numbered. Below is an example from Homer’s Iliad, Book One, showing the English translation on the left and the Greek original on the right. When citing this text we might say that Achilles is first mentioned by Homer in Iliad 1.7 (i.7 is also acceptable).

  • Birds in the Ancient World from a to Z
    BIRDS IN THE ANCIENT WORLD FROM A TO Z Why did Aristotle claim that male Herons’ eyes bleed during mating? Do Cranes winter near the source of the Nile? Was Lesbia’s pet really a House Sparrow? Ornithology was born in ancient Greece, when Aristotle and other writers studied and sought to identify birds. Birds in the Ancient World from A to Z gathers together the information available from classical sources, listing all the names that ancient Greeks gave their birds and all their descriptions and analyses. Arnott identifies (where achievable) as many of them as possible in the light of modern ornithological studies. The ancient Greek bird names are transliterated into English script, and all that the classical writers said about birds is presented in English. This book is accordingly the first complete discussion of classical bird names that will be accessible to readers without ancient Greek. The only previous study in English on the same scale was published over seventy years ago and required a knowledge of Greek and Latin. Since then there has been an enormous expansion in ornithological studies which has vastly increased our knowledge of birds, enabling us to evaluate (and explain) ancient Greek writings about birds with more confidence. With an exhaustive bibliography (partly classical scholarship and partly ornithological) added to encourage further study Birds in the Ancient World from A to Z is the definitive study of birds in the Greek and Roman world. W.Geoffrey Arnott is former Professor of Greek at the University of Leeds and Fellow of the British Academy.
