What happens when everyone is guilty?A king sacrifices his daughter. A wife murders her husband. A son kills his mother. Each act is horrifying. Each act is understandable. Each act creates the next.In 458 BC, the Greek playwright Aeschylus took one of the bloodiest family stories in mythology and transformed it into something far greater: a meditation on justice, revenge, mercy, and civilization itself.This is the story of the House of Atreus.This is the story of the first great jury trial in Western literature.And this is the story of the moment humanity imagined a world where disputes could be settled by law rather than vengeance.Welcome to Dark Margins.If you enjoy deep dives into mythology, history, philosophy, and the stories that shaped civilization, consider liking, subscribing, and joining us for future episodes.#TheOresteia #GreekMythology #Aeschylus #AncientGreece #History #Philosophy #Justice #Mythology #DarkMargins #StorytellingFor more Narration by Bobby Garrison go to:https://www.audible.com/search?searchNarrator=Bobby+GarrisonRemember to Like and Subscribe
