While not for everyone, I love this version of Agamemnon directed by Peter Hall and with music by Harrison Birtwhistle. Maybe something to watch when you read the play. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdv3vkECqXA
Sir Sergeant, on the subject of Egypt and the colossul weight of its history and its impact, it and of the entirety of human history; a poem by Goethe explains, or rather, puts in to words that which we feel but cannot fully comprehend and integrante. "He whose vision cannot cover/History's three thousand years,/Must on outer darkness hover,/ Live within the day's frontiers.
Cool thank you! Thanks for clearing the pedo stuff up! Lol I loved learning about the Roman emporers as well and have also read Heliogabalus. Interesting to think about that kind of debauchery (and we complain about our politicians correctness) I wish I lived in 3000 year old empire sometimes. Maybe we will get there but I wouldn't put my money on it
