Agamemnon (Morshead Translation)
Agamemnon is a tragedy by Aeschylus, part of the Oresteia trilogy, first performed in 458 BC. The play recounts the return of Agamemnon, King of Argos, from the Trojan War, only to be met with betrayal and murder at the hands of his wife, Clytemnestra. This work is notable for being the only surviving example of an ancient Greek theater trilogy and explores themes of revenge, justice, and the transition from personal vendetta to organized legal systems. The Morshead translation brings this classic tale to modern readers, preserving its dramatic intensity and historical significance.
