About this listen

Agamemnon, a gripping verse tragedy penned by the Roman playwright Seneca the Younger in the 1st Century CE, delves into the haunting Greek Legend of the House of Atreus. The bitter feud between Atreus and Thyestes continues to cast a long shadow, leading to a cycle of vengeance that births Aegisthus, destined to bring ruin to Agamemnon, the great king of Argos. As the dust settles from the Trojan War, Agamemnons triumphant return with captives and treasure is overshadowed by dark omens. Clytemnestra, fueled by rage over Agamemnons sacrifice of their daughter Iphigenia and consumed by jealousy over his new captive, Cassandra, plots his demise. Estranged by time and betrayal, she schemes to end Agamemnon’s life, seeking both revenge and her own safety from his wrath. Join us in exploring this timeless tale of love, betrayal, and destiny. (Summary by Alan Mapstone and the translator)
