Sieben Gegen Theben (Seven Against Thebes) is a compelling tragedy by Aeschylus, originally written in ancient Greek and presented here in German. Part of a tetralogy that also included Laius, Oedipus, and the satyr play Sphinx, it is the only portion of the set to survive. The play vividly depicts the conflict between Eteocles and Polynices, the sons of Oedipus, as they clash over the throne of Thebes. Eteocles organizes the defense of the city against the Argive army, leading to a series of dramatic confrontations at each of the city’s seven gates. Aeschylus masterfully explores themes of fate, civic duty, and the destructive nature of familial strife in this powerful and enduring work.
