The characters Cassandra and Clytemnestra were used to portray Agamemnon’s character. Clytemnestra gave a very different view of Agamemnon than Cassandra did. It is hard not to wonder why Aeschylus would choose such an unordinary context. Throughout the city of Argos Clytemnestra is seen as a very loyal, dutiful wife. It is…

The characters of Cassandra and Iphigenia represent the way women were viewed in Greek society as tools for the needs of men, and they also represent warfare’s effect on women.
