(no subject)
Feb. 25th, 2008 07:02 pmThe midterm in History of Theatre and Drama turned out better than I thought. Just before I started the essay, the professor told us to "show off" - and then there was asking on whether it was drama showing off or musical theatre showing off - and I decided to show off about Greek myth. I wasn't together enough to show off about Platonic and Aristotelian philosophy.
So, I rambled on and on about the background of the mythology of the Orestia. Specifically the parts relevant to Agamemnon, as that's what the exam was asking about. I don't understand why Apollo liked Agamemnon so much, when he raped his priestess while Cassandra was seeking sanctuary and destroyed his temple.
