#would have to check polyxena's death narration in euripides' hecuba but i believe it's one or the other of these as well
Text
greek tragedy is like. if you put on clothes you are doomed. if you take off clothes you are doomed. good luck.
#thinking specifically of euripides' heracles and suppliants and bacchae for the former#and aeschylus' agamemnon and libation bearers are my go-tos for the latter#clytemnestra bares her breast hoping it's going to save her but it is in fact what seals her fate#would have to check polyxena's death narration in euripides' hecuba but i believe it's one or the other of these as well#also yael farber's haunted oresteia boots. love those. nobody even wears them and they are so haunted.#mine#bodycostume
