Editing chapter 3
Some old photos from 7th October 2021. I wrote my master’s thesis on Aeschylus’ Oresteia trilogy, and I revisited it again in my PhD thesis. My supervisor just okayed the section of my thesis dedicated to it, with no corrections to make, so I don’t think I’ll be working on it again for the foreseeable future. Well, academically at least - I do have a pretty detailed outline of a retelling I’d love to write
