The Prometheus and Agamemnon of Aeschylus is a book written by Henry William Herbert. The book is a collection of two tragedies written by the ancient Greek playwright Aeschylus. The first tragedy, Prometheus Bound, tells the story of Prometheus, a Titan who defies the gods by giving fire to humans and is punished by being chained to a rock for eternity. The second tragedy, Agamemnon, is part of a trilogy called The Oresteia and tells the story of the Trojan War hero Agamemnon, who returns home only to be murdered by his wife and her lover. The book includes a preface by Herbert and a translation of the two plays from the original Greek.
