"...this is a very good little book. It should be recommended to students coming to the trilogy for the first time." Bryn Mawr Classical Review

It discusses the Greek drama festival and the social and political background of Greek tragedy, and offers a reading of this central trilogy. Dr 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 theater, and there is a guide to further reading.
