A Bit About MoAn Inc. -
Trust me, the ancient world isn’t as boring as you may think. In this video, I'll be talking you through the basic plot of The Persians: seeing the war through the eyes of the "enemy" and how Aeschylus continues to leave us all in tears, faced with the true horrors of conflict.

Hey guys! I've uploaded my written notes on my website for you all, so you can find them at this link: www.moaninc.co.uk/aeschylus/persians-summary. Hope this helps! x
You can never go wrong with Aeschylus- keep up the great work 👏

I absolutely love your point when you said that Aeschylus' the Persians acts as a window into the sympathy behind the Achaemenid Empire, enabling the Greeks to sympathise with the Persians over grief. MoAn you are incredible, and make such a difference to my Classics studies!
As I'm reading through aeschylus works I always come to these video after finishing each one and your videos have been great!

Doing Aeschylus persians as part of my Classical Civilisations A-Level, this is EXTREMELY helpful!
THRILLED to hear this!!!
So I come from a near-100% math background for god knows how long, and I've recently got my hands on "The Great Books of the Western World" collection just to try to expand and appreciate new things. Your channel and videos really, REALLY help me achieve this. Subscribed!

As far as I am aware, Aeschylus fought in the battle of Plataea, the final battle of the Persian Wars
When I read this play, I was first interested in the aesthetics and mysterious philosophical aspects of Darius’ Ghost. And accepting the character as being reality. Then I discovered the tragedy when I realized that Empress Atossa was maybe already suffering from hallucinations and that her mental health had been so affected…. Thank you so much for you enthusiasm. You rocked the mic. Loved your talk show. Did you see Niki Minaj on the cover of Vogue?
Persian is my favourite by Aeschylus.
A GREAT choice!
Like!
😇
Looooved this Erica! I haven’t read this play before, ANOTHER one to add to the never ending list to read🤣🫶🏻
Also loved what you said in the intro, and that you encourage people to read the original texts, you’re the best xx
YOU’RE THE BEST 🥹
