Accoridng to Rabinowitz: "In this talk, I look at terrorism, specifically the events following the attacks on the World Trade Center and the ways in which women were used in the public discourse around those events, in connection with Greek tragedy. What can we learn from tragedy (in particular Aeschylus' Agamemnon, Euripides' Iphigenia at Aulis and Women of Troy) about the relationship between gender and war?"
