References

page 24 note 1 The πειθώ—β⋯α antithesis is of primary importance in the interpretation of the trilogy and of Aeschylean thought in general.

page 24 note 2 Even there, the force of πρ⋯σωθεν may be distributed between στε⋯χoντα and μαθ⋯ντες.

page 25 note 1 The specific command of a god is a turn of the theological screw which Aeschylus reserves for the Choephori—and for a crime that needed it.
