註釋
In Greek mythology, Andromache was the wife of Hector, the Trojan War hero, daughter of Eetion, and sister to Podes. After Hector was killed by Achilles, the Greeks killed Astyanax, her little son by Hector by throwing him from the city walls. The killer of her son, Neoptolemus, then took Andromache as a concubine. Her tragedy was described in an Athenian tragedy by Euripides. The tragedy dramatizes Andromache's life as a slave, years after the events of the Trojan War and her conflict with her master's new wife, Hermione. The translation was provided by the prominent British classical scholar and public intellectual specializing in Ancient Greece, Gilbert Murray.
