Paperback. Zustand: New. After receiving an ultimatum from Apollo, Orestes must decide if he'd rather face the wrath of the gods, or the earthly consequences for his actions When Orestes returns home to Agos after hearing of his father's death, he has a quest and a secret. Since he had been banished from the kingdom by his mothe…r when he was young, he must pay respects to King Agamemnon in disguise. At the grave site he is reunited with his sister, Electra. Both scorned by Clytemnestra, the siblings share in their hatred of their mother and Orestes confides in Electra about his plot. When explains the Oracle of Apollo sent him to get vengeance for Agamemnon's murder, Electra agrees to help kill Clytemnestra and her lover, Aigisthos. Together they pray to their father, Agamemnon, asking his spirit to assist in getting revenge of his murder. Though Orestes received a blessing from the God Apollo, he must face many obstacles in order to achieve his plot. First, to be accepted in the palace, he must convince Clytemnestra and Aigisthos that he is just a traveler. He protects his identity pretending to be just a traveler and tricks Clytemnestra into believing that her banished son has died. Still, even as his plot slowly comes to fruition, Orestes must consider the emotional and moral toll of murder, and which harbinger of karma might decide to punish him. With high stakes and rich drama, The Libation Bearers follows a family cursed with the quest and thirst for vengeance, falling into an unforgiving cycle of bloodshed. As the second installment of Aeschylus' famed Oresteian trilogy, The Libation Bearers acts as both a stand-alone piece and a participant in the only surviving Greek trilogy. With complex characters and thrilling drama, Aeschylus' The Libation Bearers remains to be remarkable and intriguing to a modern audience. This addition of The Libation Bearers by the famed Greek playwright Aeschylus is now presented with an eye-catching new cover design and is printed in a modern font. With these accommodations, The Libation bearers is accessible to a contemporary audience.

Paperback. Zustand: New. In The Eumenides, the final part of The Oresteian trilogy, Orestes must face the consequences of his revenge plot. After killing Clytemnestra he flees from Agos and seeks refuge in Delphi inside a temple of Apollo. However, Furies, deities of justice, follow him in an attempt to punish Orestes for his mi…sdeed. While he is in the temple, the God Apollo protects him and subdues the Furies with a sleep spell lasting long enough for Orestes to escape them again. Orestes seeks further help from the gods, begging for their interference. Under the protection of Hermes, Orestes travels to Athens. He is haunted by his mother's ghost, who encourages the Furies to continue to hunt her son and torment him as punishment for her death. When the Furies find Orestes in Athens, he prays to Goddess Athena to help him. As the Goddess of Justice, Athena appears and holds a trial for Orestes which she presides over. An epic murder trial unfolds with Orestes as the defendent and the Furies advocating for late Clytemnestra. Apollo comes to his aid once more and testifies before a jury of Athenians making a plea for why Orestes was right to avenge King Agamemnon. If the jury finds Orestes guilty he will be tormented for an eternity by the Furies, but if they acquit him, Orestes can return home to Agos as the rightful heir to the throne.The Eumenides is the final part of the highly esteemed Grecian trilogy, The Oresteia. Written by the father of tragedy, Aeschlyus, The Eumenides is an entertaining and enthralling work of literature as well as a vital piece of history, as it is one of the few works that were recovered from Aeschylus. With heart-pounding drama and emotion-driven prose, The Eumenides promotes a message of mercy over wrath and depicts complex characterizations of popular Greek gods, satisfying even modern readers. This edition of The Eumenides by the legendary Greek playwright Aeschylus features an eye-catching cover design and is printed in a modern font to cater to contemporary audiences.
