Question

If you were Orpheus, would you have locked back? why or why not?

Answer 1

I can understand that Orpheus was not certain if he wasn't tricked by Hades, and if Eurydice is really following him. He also wanted to see his beloved. But the punishment for doing so was very severe, and Greek gods were usually not the ones one should trifle with, so i think that his action was reckless. I wouldn't look back, but its easier said then done.
