The cento-tragedy Medea usually attributed to Hosidius Geta was
transmitted in the Codex Salmasianus (now Codex Parisinus 10318).
This is a comprehensive study and reevaluation of the text against
the background of the ancient cento tradition, also providing a new
English translation. After developing a new definition of the
ancient conception of the cento in general, Geta's cento technique
and his use of the Vergilian text as well as his relation to the
Greek and Roman models for his Medea are examined. It is shown that
his play is innovative and sophisticated in both technique and
content.
