Reader reviews for Prometheus Bound

From the publisher

Prometheus Bound is a play written by Aeschylus, one of the great Greek tragedians. The play is a retelling of the myth of Prometheus, the Titan who stole fire from the gods and gave it to humanity. As punishment for his defiance, Prometheus is chained to a rock and subjected to eternal torment by Zeus, the king of the gods. The play explores themes of power, rebellion, and the struggle between the individual and the state. It is a powerful meditation on the human condition and the nature of justice. The play is notable for its vivid imagery, poetic language, and complex characters, including Prometheus himself, who is portrayed as a tragic hero fighting against an unjust fate. It is a classic work of literature that has been studied and performed for centuries, and it continues to inspire and challenge readers today.PROMETHEUS Think not that I for pride and stubbornness Am silent: rather is my heart the prey Of gnawing thoughts, both for the past, and now Seeing myself by vengeance buffeted. For to these younger Gods their precedence Who severally determined if not I?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
