RusticWritten during the period of the Dictatorship of the Colonels in Greece (1967-1974) in which Ritsos was persecuted for his ideas and retaliated, Agamemnon is part of a series of monologues of exceptional validity, with which the poet managed to transfer to our days the pathos of the Greek tragedy and show the survival of the conflict between individual values and commitment to the political community. With Agamemnon we continue the publication of these dramatic soliloquies in Selma Ancira's version.
