A Greek tragedy by Euripides written in the early stages of the Peloponnesian War (420s BCE). After the fall of Troy, Andromache, wife of the Trojan hero Hector, became a concubine to Neoptolemus, King of Thessaly, son of Achilles, and bore him a child. Hermione, Andromache's wife, conspired with her father, King Menelaus of Sparta, to kill Andromache and her son, but was prevented by Neoptolemus' grandfather Peleus. Meanwhile, Orestes, Hermione's former fiancé and cousin, kills Neoptolemus in Delphi and takes Hermione away. The author portrays the three Peloponnesians, Menelaus, Orestes, and Hermione, as villains, representing the general hostility toward Sparta among Athenians at the time. Andromache |
ギリシアのエウリピデスの悲劇。ペロポネソス戦争初期 (前 420年代) の作。トロイの英雄ヘクトルの妻アンドロマケは,トロイ落城後アキレウスの子でテッサリア王のネオプトレモスの侍妾となって1子をもうけた。正室のヘルミオネは父のスパルタ王メネラオスとはかってアンドロマケ母子を殺そうとするが,ネオプトレモスの祖父ペレウスにはばまれる。一方,ヘルミオネの前の婚約者で従兄のオレステスがデルフォイでネオプトレモスを殺して,ヘルミオネを奪い去る。作者はメネラオス,オレステス,ヘルミオネの3人のペロポネソス人を悪玉として描き,当時のアテネ人一般のスパルタに対する敵対感情を代弁している。
