The Character of Clytemnestra
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page analysis of the character of Clytemnestra in the play 'Agamemnon' (458 B.C.) by the Greek playwright Aeschylus. The writer argues that it would have been easy for Aeschylus to portray Clytemnestra as a completely unsympathetic character. Instead, he forces the audience to see Clytemnestra's point of view. Nevertheless, by making Clytemnestra¹s most defining characteristic her duplicity, Aeschylus obviously intends for the audience to see her as conniving and driven by her love of power.

Aeschylus's "The Libation-Bearers": Underlying Themes
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. As the tragic hero, Orestes is forced to come face to face with his own shortcomings, which ultimately cast upon him the tragic flaw that eventually leads to his downfall. Facing opposition from within his own being is part of the inner struggle that Orestes must addresses throughout the dialogue with his mother, Clytemnestra. The fate that governs her life also controls the actions associated with her troubled existence; being both underhanded and manipulative, Clytemnestra never dreams she would need to call upon the very depths of her heart in order to plead for her own life. However, as time progresses, Orestes inevitably learns that he, too, possesses a significant flaw and ultimately succumbs to the burdens of emotion that fate has already provided for him.
