Electra Tragic Greek Play Retold
The Play begins before Pylades, Orestes, and Paedagogous come into Agamemnon’s palace. ... Then Electra starts saying how sad she is about her dad’s (Agamemnon’s) death. ... Electra talked to her sister and asked her not to give the offering but to pray that Orestes would come back and avenge their father’s death. ... Clytemnestra goes to make a sacrifice and sees Electra. Clytemnestra said to Electra that she has no right to be mad at her. Clytemnestra tells Electra the only reason she killed Agamemnon is because Agamemnon sacrificed his daughter. Then Electra argued that the only real reason she killed Agamemnon is because of lust, and that her father only sacrificed his kid because he had to.
