This is probably the best and most classic telling of Prometheus, from his giving fire to man from the noblest of reasons to how horribly and seemingly unjustly that Zeus punishes him. All arts and tools come from Prometheus, after all, and he should always be considered the greatest of all friends of mankind even though he is a titan. However, he's also the one that pushed us to improve our intellect in the same way he did for himself, and in doing so, he brought harm upon himself. See a trend? We created war with the smelting of ore into weapons, after all. It's not all about cooking and keeping warm or creating medicine. Was Zeus right? Was it right to keep an immortal chained and have a bird eat his liver for all eternity? Or was this just the graphic depiction of what we will always do to ourselves? I wish I could read the other two parts of this play. I think that would be awesome. :) But alas. What we've got is still pretty raw and emotional and delightfully slanted. After all, we're meant to sympathize entirely with Prometheus throughout the play. It reminds me an awful lot of Paradise Lost. :) Good motivations and charismatic leaders leading to roads paved to hell. :) ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

HTML: Though some scholars have recently begun to question whether Aeschylus authored the play Prometheus Bound, there is no question that this classic of ancient Greek literature is a literary achievement befitting the playwright known as the Father of Tragedy. In the play, Zeus tethers a Titan named Prometheus to a gigantic boulder for all of eternity as punishment for bestowing the gift of fire upon mankind. Will the tortured giant ever escape his ghoulish prison? .Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

Ésquilo continua o Mito de Prometeu, introduzido em Os Trabalhos e os Dias por Hesíodo, narrando a punição de Prometeu, por roubar o fogo de Hefesto e a sabedoria de Atenas, em ser acorrentado em um rochedo no Cáucaso por Hefesto, Cratos e Bia e ter o fígado comido durante o dia por uma águia.
Na tragédia Zeus é retratado como um deus cruel e tirânico que governa por meio da força e da opressão. Arbitrariedade e tirania evidenciadas também em Io, uma sacerdotisa mortal que é transformada em uma vaca por Zeus para protegê-la da ira de Hera, forçada a vagar pelo mundo em sua forma animal.
Preso na rocha Prometeu faz diversas previsões sobre o futuro, incluindo uma em que ele prevê a queda de Zeus e a ascensão de um novo governante, um filho, que seria mais poderoso.
A previsão é vista como uma forma de reafirmar a luta de Prometeu pela liberdade e pela justiça. Ao prever a queda de Zeus, Prometeu mostra que a tirania divina não pode prevalecer para sempre, e que há uma possibilidade de mudança e renovação no mundo. Além disso, ele também demonstra sua confiança na capacidade humana de superar as dificuldades e alcançar a redenção. (
