Book Description
In this play, Aeschylus explores the themes of revenge, justice, and the power of the gods. The Eumenides of Aeschylus follows the story of Orestes, who is pursued by the Furies for killing his mother. He seeks refuge in Athens, where Athena calls a trial to determine his guilt. Will he be found guilty and suffer the wrath of the Furies, or will he be absolved and find peace?
