Den Mythos davon, dass Orestes und Elektra für ihren getöteten Vater Agamemnon Rache nehmen und seine Mörderin, ihre eigene Mutter Klytaimestra, umbringen, haben die drei berühmtesten attischen Tragiker – Aischylos, Sophokles und Euripides – auf die Bühne gebracht. Sophokles konzentriert sich in seinem Stück vor allem auf das Leid der isoliert bei ihrer verhassten Mutter lebenden Elektra. Seine Tragödie hat besonders seit dem 19. Jahrhundert zahlreiche moderne Dramatiker (wie etwa Hugo von Hofmannsthal, Eugene O’Neill, Jean Giraudoux oder Jean-Paul Sartre) zu Neufassungen inspiriert. Der vorliegende Kommentar erschließt den Text für moderne Leser. Er legt besonderes Gewicht darauf, die Wirkung des Bühnengeschehens auf den Zuschauer sowie die Bezüge zur modernen Rezeption des Textes zu erläutern. The mythical story of Orestes’s and Electra’s act of vengeance against their mother, Clytemnestra, was developed by Sophocles as well as Aeschylus and Euripides. In his tragedy, Sophocles focused on the suffering of Electra, living in isolation with her hated mother. This commentary places particular emphasis on the impact of the play’s events on the audience and references to the modern reception of the text.

In the first century BCE, Greek intellectuals had to come to terms with the stability of Roman power. Many of them were active in Rome, which became the cultural centre of the Greek world ; others were connected with Roman patrons. Their work became important for the emergence of Greek identity in the Roman Empire. Bringing together an international group of leading Classical scholars, this volume represents the first attempt at a comprehensive study of Greek cultural identity in the first century : how did the Romans influence the Greeks' view(s) of themselves and of their classical heritage ? How did the Greeks interpret the Romans and their role in the world ? Covering such different genres as historiography, literary criticism, the novel, and epigram, as well as archaeological material, the contributions explore the intellectual diversity of one of the most significant periods in history and situate the authors active under Augustus within their broader intellectual-historical context.
