Aeschylus2014
Books
First performed in 458BC, Aeschylus's trilogy of plays - known collectively as 'The Oresteia' - remains perhaps the great masterpiece of ancient tragic drama. Telling the bloody story of the House of Atreus, Aeschylus's tragedy stages an eternal debate about justice and revenge that remains relevant more than two millenia later.
