The Agamemnon of Aeschylus
Gilbert Murray
The Agamemnon of Aeschylus - The sense of difficulty, and indeed of awe, with which a scholar approaches the task of translating the Agamemnon depends directly on its greatness as poetry. It is in part a matter of diction. The language of Aeschylus is an extraordinary thing, the syntax stiff and simple, the vocabulary obscure, unexpected, and steeped in splendour. Aeschylus; c. 525/524
