What the Goddess of Divine Retribution Wants, the Goddess of Divine Retribution Gets (Seneca’s Thyestes Part 2)
Let's Talk About Myths, Baby! Greek & Roman Mythology Retold - A podcast by Liv Albert and iHeartPodcasts
As Seneca's Thyests continues, Atreus finalizes his plan for revenge and Thyestes returns home to Argolis with his beloved children. Help keep LTAMB going by subscribing to Liv's Patreon for bonus content! CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. And this one features infanticide and cannibalism... Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing. Sources: Seneca's Thyestes, primarily the version translation by Emily Wilson with long passages quoted from the Frank Justus Miller; Hyginus' Fabulae; Theoi.com entry on Erinyes and quote from Ovid's Metamorphoses.
