Aeschylus produced his great trilogy, "The Oresteia". ... The Oresteia originally consisted of four plays-Agamemnon, The Libation Bearers, The Euminides and Proteus. ... Atreus had two sons called Agamemnon and Menelaus. Agamemnon marries Clytaemnestra, and Menelaus marries Helen. ... Agamemnon does so and his troops set sail. ...
Aeschylus cannot think this. ... To soften his message, he evolves his idea through the use of a trilogy, the Story of Agamemnon, Euripides, and the Libation Bearers (I think that's right). ... Some believe Aeschylus was forced to write the Oresteia by an angry mob of young radicals. ... Which leads us to the story, Aeschylus clearly hides ideas in his paper. ... This is the prevailing theory, was Aeschylus and the gang really gay (not as in merry but MARY). ...
Aeschylus aptly personifies the basis of this societal value with the words of Athena: ?... Likewise, the immortality of Aeschylus? ... In Agamemnon, the first play, Clytemnestra kills the King brutally, heartlessly, inspired by her angry, vengeful nature, her lust for power, and, quite probably, the hellish Furies. ... In addition, Aeschylus moves the setting of the play during its progression from a distant polis to his audience's very own city. ...
