Description

Description

This edition seeks, at least in part, to replace the monumental annotated edition of "Medea" by D. L. Page (Oxford, 1938). It incorporates the findings of modern philological and papyrological research and includes the ancient text in a revised version, accompanied by a brief critical commentary.

The author's introduction analyzes the tragedy as a story of revenge, evaluates the motives that drive the heroine's insistence on killing her children, and explores the impact that Medea's triple identity as a woman, barbarian, and sorceress would have on the sympathy of the Athenian audience toward her. The introduction also includes sections on the language and style of tragic poetry.
