Ανδρομάχη
by Euripides
Translated by George B. Tsokopoulos
"Ανδρομάχη" by Euripides is a tragedy written around 424 BCE. After Troy's fall, Andromache becomes the captive of Neoptolemus, bearing him a son. When Neoptolemus marries Hermione, jealousy erupts into a deadly plot. With her master away at Delphi, Andromache seeks sanctuary as Hermione and her father Menelaus threaten both her life and her child's. This multifaceted drama explores war's aftermath, betrayal, and the fragility of fortune while delivering pointed criticism of Spartan treachery during the Peloponnesian War.
