Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an epic tragedy from ancient Greece by the celebrated playwright Aeschylus. The story centers around the mythical figure of Prometheus, a powerful Titan who dared to defy the omnipotent Zeus. As a divine punishment, Prometheus is chained to a rock and subjected to relentless torture. Despite his suffering, Prometheus stubbornly refuses to bow to Zeus's tyranny, embodying the indomitable spirit of resistance against oppression. The tragedy explores profound themes of hubris, justice, fate, and the limits of power. Through its complex characters and lyrical language, this ancient play offers a timeless meditation on the human condition, questioning the nature of authority and the price of rebellion.
