It discusses the Greek drama festival and the social and political background of Greek tragedy, and offers a reading of this central trilogy. Simon Goldhill focuses on the play's themes of justice, sexual politics, violence, and the position of man within culture, and explores how Aeschylus constructs a myth for the city in which he lived. A final chapter considers the influence of the Oresteia on later theatre. Its clear structure and guide to further reading will make this an invaluable guide for students and teachers alike. 410 0$aLandmarks of world literature. 606 $aTragedy 615 0$aTragedy. 676 $a882/.01 700 $aGoldhill$b Simon$0169638 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784318203321 996 $aAeschylus$91138280 997 $aUNINA
