Excerpt from The Electra of Euripides Homer had long since told the story, as he tells so many, simply and grandly, without moral questioning and without intensity. The atmosphere is heroic. It is all a blood-feud between Chieftains, in which Orestes, after seven years, succeeds in slaying his foe Aegisthus, who had killed his father. He probably killed his mother also but we are not directly told so. His sister may have helped him, and he may possibly have gone mad afterwards, but these painful issues are kept determinedly in the shade.
