In Seneca’s Thyestes do you think that Thyestes is victimized by Atreus? Give reasons for your answer.
Seneca’s Thyestes is concerned with the revenge that Atreus (king of Argos) took on his brother Thyestes, luring him back from exile, killing his three sons and serving them up as a meal to him. The play winds a twisted tale of revenge between two warring brothers who are the rulers of their kingdom. The tale begins with the history of the family, with grandfather Tantalus having passed away and his son Pelops having banished his children, Atreus and Thyestes, for murdering their half-brother Chrysippus.
