A 5 page paper examining Clytemnestra's
eventual reaction to Agamemnon's womanizing and autocratic control. Homer portrays
Clytemnestra as being weak and insignificant, but Aeschylus portrays her as a strong woman who
ultimately has her fill of Agamemnon's domination and complete lack of regard for all women.
Agamemnon could have seen the warning signs had he chosen to acknowledge them, but his
hatred of women would not allow such acknowledgement. Several societal institutions failed
Clytemnestra, but she broke free of them and created her own. No sources listed.
