Sinopsis

The Eumenides is the third play in Aeschylus?s Oresteia trilogy. This edition, 'As Arranged for Performance at Cambridge, Dec., 1885,' offers a glimpse into the enduring appeal and adaptation of classical Greek drama for later audiences. The play explores themes of justice, revenge, and the transition from primitive law to a more civilized legal system. It depicts Orestes?s pursuit by the Furies for the crime of matricide and his eventual trial in Athens. The intervention of Athena and the establishment of the Areopagus mark a pivotal moment in the development of Athenian democracy and jurisprudence. This edition provides valuable insight into the reception and interpretation of Aeschylus?s work in the late 19th century and its continuing relevance to contemporary discussions of law, morality, and social order.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
