Book excerpt: The Medea of Euripides is one of the greatest of all Greek tragedies and arguably the one with the most significance today. A barbarian woman brought to Corinth and there abandoned by her Greek husband, Medea seeks vengeance on Jason and is willing to strike out against his new wife and family—even slaughtering the sons she has born him. At its center is Medea herself, a character who refuses definition: Is she a hero, a witch, a psychopath, a goddess? All that can be said for certain is that she is a woman who has loved, has suffered, and will stop at nothing for vengeance. In this stunning translation, poet Charles Martin captures the rhythms of Euripides’ original text through contemporary rhyme and meter that speak directly to modern readers. An introduction by classicist and poet A.E. Stallings examines the complex and multifaceted Medea in patriarchal ancient Greece. Perfect in and out of the classroom as well as for theatrical performance, this faithful translation succeeds like no other.

Book excerpt: The first playwright of democracy, Euripides wrote with enduring insight and biting satire about social and political problems of Athenian life. In contrast to his contemporaries, he brought an exciting--and, to the Greeks, a stunning--realism to the "pure and noble form" of tragedy. For the first time in history, heroes and heroines on the stage were not idealized: as Sophocles himself said, Euripides shows people not as they ought to be, but as they actually are.

Book Medea by Euripides  The Ancient Greek Tragedy

Download or read book Medea by Euripides The Ancient Greek Tragedy written by Augusta Webster and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2024-07-17 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charged with female agency, Medea is a powerful story of betrayal, desperation, and horrifying revenge. The classic Greek tragedy is brought to life in this lyrical translation by Augusta Webster. Medea has lived in the shadows her entire life, but when her husband, Jason, commits the ultimate act of betrayal and leaves her for another woman, she refuses to be quietly side-lined. Consumed by sorrow and rage, Medea devises a chilling and urgent plan for revenge, targeting the only thing she knows Jason loves: their children. Originally written by Euripides, one of the greatest Greek tragedians, this edition of Medea is re-imagined by Augusta Webster, the first woman to translate the resonant drama. Now known as a compelling feminist text, this 1868 translation revives the Ancient Greek play through a feminine lens. Featuring an insightful introduction from Gilbert Murray's 1912 translation, alongside Augusta Webster's poignant poem, 'Medea in Athens', this new edition of Medea explores the divine feminine, delving into themes of power, vengeance, and the complexities of love.
