Figure from Greek mythology
Electra
In Greek mythology Electra, also spelt Elektra (; Ancient Greek: Ἠλέκτρα, romanized: Ēléktra or Ilektra, lit. 'amber', 'shining' or 'radiant', [ɛːléktraː]), is a princess of Mycenae and the daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra. Famously, Electra and her brother, Orestes, attack and kill Clytemnestra to avenge their father's murder. She is the titular main character of two Greek tragedies: Electra by Sophocles and Electra by Euripides. She is also the central figure in plays by Aeschylus, Alfieri, Voltaire, Hofmannsthal, Eugene O'Neill, and Jean-Paul Sartre. She is a vengeful soul in The Libation Bearers, the second play of Aeschylus' Oresteia trilogy. In the field of psychology the Electra complex is named after her.
