25. The Oresteia: Introduction
- www.theatrehistory.com
- Introduction · Agamemnon · Libation Bearers · Eumenides · Overview.
- Of all the works of Aeschylus the strongest in dramatic force is the Oresteia, a series consisting of the Agamemnon, the Choëphoræ (or Libation Bearers) and the Eumenides, the only one of his trilogies that has come down to us. ... Says William von Humboldt of the Agamemnon, and his remarks might be applied to the entire trilogy: "Among all the products of the Greek stage none can compare with it in tragic power; no other play shows the same intensity and pureness of belief in the divine and good; none can surpass the lessons it teaches, and the wisdom of which it is the mouthpiece. ...

28. About Helen of Troy
- www.english.uiuc.edu
- Clytemnestra married during this time, first to Tantalus, son of Thyestes, and later to Agamemnon, who killed Tantalus. ... It is probably best to go with the common story that Helen had no child by Theseus and that Iphigeneia was the daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra.
- He had wealth and power, mainly through his brother Agamemnon, but for Helen he did not offer the good looks and glamor of some of her other suitors. ...
- Agamemnon was furious. ...
- In any case it is almost at the opposite pole from the chorus in Agamemnon where Aeschylus says of Helen that she is the Erinyes, the 'wife of tears' and 'the priest of Ate'; we are also a long way from the suggestion that Helen has a sort of divine mission, making her the instrument of fate: as it is expressed in Vellacott's translation, 'Was born that fit and fatal name/To glut the sea with spoil of ships' (Agamemnon 689).
29. Dragon's Hoard - Helen of Troy
- whitedragon.org.uk
- Menelaus was chosen (his brother, Agamemnon, being already married to Helen’s sister, Clytemnestra), he and Helen married, and in time they had a daughter, Hermione.
- The child that she bore was called Iphigeneia, and she subsequently gave her to her sister Clytemnestra to bring up (Iphigeneia was the maiden who was sacrifiiced by Agamemnon so that the Greek fleet could have a fair wind to sail to Troy - if Iphigeneia was Helen’s daughter, then we have the daughter being sacrificed for the mother).
- However, mythologically we can see that their role has been replaced/usurped by the brothers Menelaus and Agamemnon. Both brothers are involved in the courtship of Helen, as Agamemnon comes to woo her on his brother’s behalf. ... Whilst, just as the Dioscuri are only half divine (one mortal, one not - but they share their divinity in the afterlife), Menelaus is immortalised (for being Helen’s husband) but Agamemnon is murdered and rests in the underworld.

- Agamemnon und Iphigenia.
- Während nun die Flotte zu Aulis sich versammelte, vertrieb der Völkerfürst Agamemnon sich die Zeit mit der Jagd. ...
- Sogleich beschied er den Herold der versammelten Griechen, Talthybios aus Sparta, zu sich und ließ denselben mit hellem Heroldsruf vor allen Völkern verkündigen, daß Agamemnon den Oberbefehl über das griechische Heer niedergelegt habe, weil er keinen Kindesmord auf sein Gewissen laden wolle. ... Menelaos begab sich mit dieser Schreckensnachricht zu seinem Bruder in das Feldherrnzelt, stellte ihm die Folgen seiner Entschließung, die Schmach, die ihn, den Menelaos, treffen würde, wenn sein geraubtes Weib Helena in Feindeshänden bleiben sollte, vor und bot so beredt alle Gründe auf, daß endlich Agamemnon sich entschloß, den Greuel geschehen zu lassen. ...
- So haderten die Brüder miteinander, als ein Bote vor ihnen erschien und dem Fürsten Agamemnon die Ankunft seiner Tochter Iphigenia meldete, der die Mutter und sein kleiner Sohn Orestes auf dem Fuße folgten. Kaum hatte der Bote sich wieder entfernt, so überließ sich Agamemnon einer so trostlosen und herzzerreißenden Verzweiflung, daß Menelaos selbst, der bei Ankunft der Botschaft auf die Seite getreten war, jetzt sich dem Bruder wieder näherte und nach seiner rechten Hand griff. Agamemnon reichte sie ihm wehmütig dar und sprach unter heißen Tränen: »Da hast du sie, Bruder; der Sieg ist dein! Ich bin vernichtet!« Menelaos dagegen schwor ihm, von der alten Forderung abstehen zu wollen; ja er ermahnte ihn selbst jetzt, sein Kind nicht zu töten, und erklärte einen guten Bruder um Helenas willen nicht verderben und nicht verlieren zu wollen. ...
- Agamemnon warf sich dem Bruder in den Arm, doch ohne über das Geschick seiner Tochter beruhigt zu sein. ...
- »O wie glücklich wäre ich«, rief das Mädchen, »wenn ich deine Schiffsgefährtin sein dürfte!« »Nun, auch du wirst eine Fahrt anzutreten haben«, sagte Agamemnon ernst, »zuvor aber opfern wir noch ein Opfer, bei dem du nicht fehlen wirst, liebe Tochter!« Die letzten Worte erstickten unter Tränen, und er schickte das ahnungslose Kind in das für sie bereitgehaltene Zelt zu den Jungfrauen, die in ihrem Gefolge gekommen waren. ... Nachdem sich Agamemnon von der Gemahlin losgemacht, begab er sich zu dem Seher Kalchas, um mit diesem das Nähere wegen des unvermeidlichen Opfers zu verabreden. ...
- Derweilen mußte der tückische Zufall Klytämnestra im Lager mit dem jungen Fürsten Achill, der den Heerführer Agamemnon aufsuchte, weil seine Myrmidonen den längern Verzug nicht ertragen wollten, zusammenführen, und sie nahm keinen Anstand, ihn als den künftigen Eidam mit freundlichen Worten zu begrüßen. ... »Niemals habe ich um dein Kind gefreit, nie ist ein Einladungswort zur Vermählung von deinem Gemahl Agamemnon an mich gelangt!« So begann das Truggewebe vor Klytämnestras Augen aufgedeckt zu werden, und sie stand unentschlossen und voll Beschämung vor Achill. ...
