Problem
As in the first two plays of the trilogy, the central conflicts of The Eumenides are between two opposing rights. On the human plane is the right of Orestes to avenge his father's murder against the right of Clytamnestra to have her matricide avenged; on the level of the divine, the conflict is between the Furies and Apollo. Thinking in terms of what each god represents, describe the conflicting rights of the Furies and Apollo. Is there a link between the human conflict and the conflict of the immortals?
