The Greek interpretation of what makes a man "civilized" and what makes him "savage" is a recurring theme throughout ancient epics, in the tales of battle and in plays, including Aeschylus' Agamemnon. In this first installment of the Oresteia, the chorus of Argive elders express intense outrage at the killing of Agamemnon, which suggests that they equate the savagery with the madness they see in Clytemnestra: "just as your mind is mad from the deed bloody, the blood -the stain in your eyes is clearly seen” (1426-1427), however, Clytemnestra proves not to fit the description of wildness defined in Homer's literature, for example, and instead demonstrates of being a very complex and rational woman. The chorus ignores the queen's many admirable qualities - her ability to manage the estate and her compassion for those who have suffered, among other things - simply because she is a woman do not entirely exempt Clytemnestra from taking her own life, but they combine to form a nobler image of the queen than the one the chorus chooses to portray. Clytemnestra has recognizable motives and shows empathy and respect for many different people, including the husband she has just killed, which distinguishes her from the classical Greek definition of savage, a designation imposed on Clytemnestra by the chorus, but not necessarily to be believed. .While Clytemnestra's crime would be violent and shocking to the Argive men and the Greek public, her motivations for killing her husband are not entirely incomprehensible and are not without roots in justice. After stabbing the king, Clytemnestra brings the chorus's attention back to the other murder witnessed earlier in the play: the... center of the card... Omer's idea of ​​savages, from the Odyssey , includes people like the Leestragons who habitually devour men, without conscious thought of morality or consequences, and men like the suitors who have committed crimes against xenia. Until Iphigenia's sacrifice, when she reaches her breaking point, Clytemnestra has not outrageously offended the gods, has not ruthlessly harassed members of other families, or acted recklessly, and even after this crucial event, she carries out his plans with an impressive amount of mental assiduity. Throughout Agamemnon the chorus is unjust and imprecise when they accuse it of madness and ferocity; she is not crazy or barbaric but rather logical and aware. These are qualities that deserve at least the respect of an audience capable of resisting the partial judgments of the chorus of Argive elders..
