«Las coéforas» is the Greek tragedy by Aeschylus, published by Ediciones Clásicas in paperback (72 pages, in Spanish).
After the murder of Agamemnon by Clytemnestra and Aegisthus, his son Orestes returns from exile and, together with his sister Electra, plots revenge. Deception is part of the plan, and the work closes at a moment of maximum tension, when a personal and bloody reckoning culminates.
Second part of Aeschylus's Oresteia trilogy. Version by Francisco Expósito Sánchez and Francisco Palencia Cortés. First edition, Madrid, 2000.
For readers of Greek tragedy and secondary school students approaching classical literature and ancient theater.
Aeschylus was an ancient Greek tragedian, often described as the father of tragedy. Academic knowledge of the genre begins with his work, and understanding of earlier Greek tragedy is largely based on inferences made from reading his surviving plays. According to Aristotle, he expanded the number of characters in the theatre and allowed conflict among them. Formerly, characters interacted only with the chorus.
