«Los persas» is the Greek tragedy by Aeschylus, published by Ediciones Clásicas in paperback.
In «Los persas», the action takes place in the Persian court, where Queen Atossa and the chorus of elders await the outcome of Xerxes' campaign against Greece. A messenger recounts the annihilation of the Persian fleet at Salamis, and the drama reflects on power, pride, and human fragility before destiny.
This edition is the version by José Luis Navarro and the text is in Spanish.
«Los persas» is ideal reading for fans of classical theatre and students of Greco-Latin literature.
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.
