Andromache is traditionally attributed to Euripides rather than Sophocles and centers on the tragic fate of Andromache, the widow of Hector, after the fall of Troy. Set in the aftermath of the Trojan War, the play portrays Andromache as a captive and concubine to Neoptolemus, the son of Achilles. She faces persecution from Neoptolemus’s jealous wife, Hermione, and her powerful father, Menelaus. The drama unfolds as Andromache struggles to protect her child and maintain her dignity in a hostile Greek environment, highlighting the brutal consequences of war for women and the displaced.
