Question
In an emotional speech, this character laments, “No mother did that for you. No nurse. No slave. I.” while cradling a funeral urn. This woman’s cries of “OIMOI MOI” are left untranslated in Anne Carson’s version of a play in which this woman often argues with her sister Chrysothemis. This woman asks a chorus of slave-women if it is right to ask the gods for “one who will take life for life” before pouring wine onto a grave. Euripides parodied a scene in which a lock of hair and a footprint lead this character to recognize a man who has secretly returned to Argos. This woman assists her brother in a plot to kill the king Aegisthus and his wife. For 10 points, name this woman who helps Orestes take revenge on their mother Clytemnestra in The Libation Bearers from Aeschylus’s Oresteia. ■END■
