    MEDEA: A RADICAL NEW VERSION FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE CHILDREN DOWNLOAD FREE BOOK Kate Mulvany | 96 pages | 29 Nov 2016 | Oberon Books Ltd | 9781783193035 | English | London, United Kingdom Medea review – domestic drama seen through children's frightened eyes As women grew older, sons became ever more important to them. Medea is presented in association with Belvoir, Sydney and directed by Anne- Louise Sarks whose original production of the play was highly critically acclaimed. The sacrifice of the innocent child has been the prerogative of Kings like Agamemnon, who at Calchas' decree sacrifices his daughter Iphigeneia. By placing centre stage the damage inflicted on the warring couple's children, it forces us into a whole new engagement with Euripides's themes of marital abuse, revenge and consequence. Among the higher classes, slaves probably did the shopping. A generation before, a prince named Phrixus—related to the royal family of Iolcus—fled from his homeland to avoid being sacrificed, riding on the back of a divine ram with a golden fleece.

  • Reading Ovid's Medea: Complexity, Unity, and Humour
    Reading Ovid’s Medea: Complexity, Unity, and Humour Reading Ovid’s Medea: Complexity, Unity, and Humour By STEPHEN CLARK RUSSELL, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Stephen Russell, May, 2011 Doctor of Philosophy (2011) McMaster University (Classics) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Reading Ovid’s Medea: Complexity, Unity, and Humour AUTHOR: Stephen Russell, B.A., M.A. SUPERVISOR: Professor Paul Murgatroyd NUMBER OF PAGES: iv, 368 ii Abstract This thesis offers a consideration of Ovid’s portrayal of Medea - in Heroides 6 and 12, Metamorphoses 7, and in Tristia 3.9. Although several scholars have examined the myth as Ovid presents it, no one has yet offered a literary appreciation of Ovid’s various accounts of the myth – one that examines his use of characterization, humour, audience response, and one that treats his Medea as a consistent, albeit complex, character. The first chapter focuses on the sources for Ovid’s Medea, the ways he makes changes and, as far as we can tell, innovations to his predecessors. The second begins with a general introduction to the Heroides, followed by a close reading of Heroides 6, showing how this letter is an oblique reference to Medea’s letter and myth, and I point out the links between the two poems, arguing that Hypsipyle’s letter must be read as a foreshadowing of Medea’s. The third chapter examines Heroides 12 – Medea’s letter - where I concentrate on Ovid’s characterization of Medea and specifically look at elements of black humour and foreshadowing.

It would be easy to draw up a list of them, but I refrain from this, as there are too many doubtful cases.

In order to appreciate (ireek sepulchral epigram as it was, we should have a selection of those actually preserved on stones.

  • Judging Medea: Reimagining Magic and Murder in Syfy's Olympus This Spring Medea Appeared in Two TV Series As a Recurring Or Ma
    Judging Medea: Reimagining Magic and Murder in Syfy’s Olympus This spring Medea appeared in two TV series as a recurring or major character. Season 2 of BBC’s Atlantis offers a young Medea, a witch uncertain of her powers and conflicted over whether her loyalties lie with her aunt Pasiphae or with Jason, to whom she finds herself drawn. Season 1 of Syfy’s Olympus presents an older and mature Medea, the wife of Aegeus, a queen attempting to rule Athens when he is wounded, maintaining an uneasy relationship with their son Lykos while working with her stepson Hero to obtain the Lexicon and thus entrance into Olympus. Although neither series is stellar, Medea emerges as the strongest character in Olympus and more substantial and intriguing than her Atlantis counterpart. Olympus presents an unexpected Medea, as her sojourn in Athens does not figure prominently in ancient sources or modern receptions, yet her murder of her two sons by Jason lies at the core of this reinterpretation. This paper examines Olympus’s reimagining of two essential facets of Medea, witch and murderous mother, and its challenging whether she is a good or bad person. Medea’s reputation as a powerful sorceress intimidates those around her and leads them to certain expectations of her. Although she can conjure a phantom to control Hero, cast a protection spell, or produce a smoke bomb, often she is helpless to free herself or easily solve a problem. Medea’s constant praying and making offerings at an altar and her use of potions or herbs establish her more as emblematic of faith and superstition opposed to science and intellect, represented by Daedalus.
