| Note | Euripides' most famous and influential play is made accessible to students of Greek reading their first tragedy. It analyses Medea as a revenge-plot, evaluates the strands of motivation that lead her to her tragic insistence on killing her own children.
Mastronarde has brought readers of Medea up to date, set out for us the scholarly discussion while cogently advancing it, and given us the tools to make our own judgements. |
