Aeschylus was the first of the three great tragic playwrights. The Oresteia is the exciting trilogy about the end of the curse of the House of Atreus. Join Orestes as he seeks to revenge his father's murder, but discovers, along with us, that revenge only begets revenge - that mercy and litigation are the better ends of justice.

Publisher's Description of Oresteian Trilogy by Aeschylus Student Book
Category Description for Memoria Press Classical Studies
In Memoria Press’ Classical Curriculum, there are two branches for history: Classical Studies and American/Modern Studies. Structured like their literature guides, these resources come in these parts: a Student Text, a Student Guide, and a Teacher Guide.
The highly readable Student Text tells the history in a simple and dignified style, with full-color artwork. Student Guides include lessons which divide the readings into manageable chunks and incorporate activities to reinforce vocabulary, comprehension, geography/map skills, timeline usage, and more (varies by course). The Teacher Guides have full-text answer keys and include tests masters and test keys.
The recommended sequence for these courses starts at around 3rd grade with D’Aulaire’s Greek Myths, continues into the Famous Men series, then moves into Book of the Ancient... series. At several levels, an optional literature study is also recommended: Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey paired with the Book of Ancient Greeks; Aeneid paired with Book of Ancient Romans; and Augustine’s City of God paired with Book of the Ancient World. Although Memoria Press uses specific courses at each grade level in their curriculum sequence, you can use these courses independently for late elementary and the middle grades as history courses.
