Het verhaal van Orestes / Agamemnom / Dodenoffer / Goede geesten

The Oresteia is often studied as individual plays, but the way they connect creates a powerful narrative arc. I wonder what led Aeschylus to craft it this way and how that impacts its themes.

The characters’ actions often blur moral lines, making me question whether justice is truly served or just perpetuates cycles of violence. How do others interpret their motives?

The trilogy raises questions about divine justice versus human justice, which feels surprisingly relevant today. I’m curious about others’ thoughts on its relevance in contemporary society.
