Women of Orestia
Women are central figures in the play, but their "rights" are ultimately undermined at its conclusion.
What lessons do you think Aeschylus was teaching his audience about the role of women in society? What lessons can we take from the play today?
You might look at individual treatment of characters for your response, as he treats them all very differently, humans and goddesses-Clytaemnestra, Iphigenia, Cassandra, Electra, Athena, the Furies, etc.
