Красиво і сумно, під кінець історії вболівав за Клітемнестру (слей квін???). Старий як світ сюжет про помсту та коло насилля, що не дає чітких відповідей. Автор хотів спитати.
Cant put 5/5 because there's fucking misogynist remarks, and even though its like 2500 years old, that does not please me. Besides, everyone knows Agamemnon is an asshole, its been quite clear in history.
Well, first of all, let me introduce myself to you as a reader: I'm all for tears, hair pulling, family issues and some long due retribution. I crave for dramatic situations, plot twists and happy (though) unexpected endings.
In this play, Elektra is an outcast, banished from the Palace she belongs to after her mother, Clitemnestra, has schemed to have her father Agamemnon (Troy's anti hero) murdered by her lover Egystus. So they take the 'realm' and have Elektra married to a peasent, who is too humble and kind to claim her as his wife, so basically he only hosts her in his cabin, giving her shelter and maintenance; Elektra's brother, Orestes,still hasn't returned from the war and the first scene is composed by Elektra's longing for Orestes to come back and avenge their treacherously deceived father.
There is one catch, though: in case Orestes does so, he will be persued by the Wraths, three creatures who punish bloodline crimes, and is vely likely to be driven insane. Now don't dare to ask me "Why doesn't Elektra take the matter into her own hands and poisens Clitemnestra or urges her people to recover her palace?" because, as we all know, women were nothing but strategical possessions for powerful men.
I do recommend it to all you soap opera lovers as to see how far the Mexican sources come from!
Páris rapta Helena, a mulher de Menelau, que é irmão de Agamémnon, o qual sacrifica a filha, Ifigénia, à deusa Ártemis para que esta acalme os ventos e os barcos possam partir para Tróia. No regresso de Agamémnon a casa, Clitemnestra vinga a filha, Ifigénia, matando o marido. Electra e Orestes, irmãos da sacrificada, vingam a morte do pai matando a mãe. Toda esta matança é por culpa de Helena que, segundo Eurípides, nunca esteve em Tróia mas sim no Egipto.
Adoro ler estas peças. Parece ser tudo igual mas há sempre algo diferente. Não gosto é muito da Electra pelo pouco apreço que ela tem pelas outras mulheres.
"[..]Μα όταν πέφτει στο σφάλμα ο άντρας,τη δικιά του παραμερίζοντας γυναίκα,τότε να τόνε μιμηθεί θέλει κι εκείνη και να'βρει άλλη αγάπη.Όμως βουίζει μετά για μας η κατηγόρια,ενώ για κείνους που ήταν η αφορμή,κακό δε λέει κανένας.Τον Μενέλαο,τον άντρα της αδερφής μου,αν κλέβαν,εγώ τότε για να τον σώσω,θα'πρεπε να σφάξω τον γιο μου Ορέστη;Πώς θα τ'ανεχόταν ο πατέρας σου τούτα;Γιατί τάχα να μην πεθάνει αυτός που τους δικούς μου αφάνισε,και μόνο εγώ από κείνον να σκοτωθώ;"
Εξαιρετικό έργο!!Δεν ξέρεις ποιόν να πρωτολυπηθείς,όλοι οι ήρωες τραγικοί. Απίστευτα νοήματα σχετικά με τον χαρακτήρα του ανθρώπου,την αντίθεση ευγένειας καταγωγής-ευγένειας φύσης,τον πλούτο και τη χρησιμότητά του,την απόδοση δικαιοσύνης,τις τύψεις.
Electra de Eurípides es una telenovela de Cris Morena escrita por Dani Umpi cuya multinacional de medios y entretenimientos Walt Disney adquirió los derechos para una futura versión cinematográfica protagonizada por Emma Watson en el papel de la muchacha que da nombre a la obra.
این نمایشنامه تصویری پرتنش و تکاندهنده از انتقام و ویرانیه؛ داستان زنی که خشم و اندوه، تمام وجودش رو فرا گرفته و اون رو به سمت تصمیمهای تراژیک سوق میده. الکترا، در طلب انتقام، نهتنها با دشمنانش، بلکه با خودش هم در کشمکشه. هر لحظهی داستان، جراحتی تازه بر زخمهای کهنه اضافه میکنه و نشون میده که گاهی در جستجوی عدالت، روح انسان نابود میشه. این اثر، مثل آینهای، تاریکیهای درونی بشر رو بازتاب میده و از بهایی که گاه برای باورهایمان میپردازیم، پرده برمیداره.
