| Summary/Abstract |
The most controversial of Greek tragedies, Euripides is also the most modernin his sympathies, a dramatist who handles the complex emotions of his characters with extraordinary depth and insight. Wronged and discarded by her husband, Medea gradually reveals her revenge in its increasing horror, while the audience is led to understand the incomprehensible;a woman who murders her own children. Since its first production in 431 BC, The play has exerted an irresistible fascination for actors and directors alike.
