Medea - simply to mention her name conjures up echoes and
cross-connections from Antiquity to the present. The vengeful wife,
the murderess of her own children, the frail, suicidal heroine, the
archetypal Bad Mother, the smitten maiden, the barbarian, the
sorceress, the abused victim, the case study for a pathology. For
more than two thousand years, she has arrested the eye in
paintings, reverberated in opera, called to us from the stage. She
demands the most interdisciplinary of study, from ancient art to
contemporary law and medicine; she is no more to be bound by any
single field of study than by any single take on her character. The
contributors to this wide-ranging volume are Brian Arkins, Angela
J. Burns, Anthony Bushell, Richard Buxton, Peter A. Campbell,
Margherita Carucci, Daniela Cavallaro, Robert Cowan, Hilary Emmett,
Edith Hall, Laurence D. Hurst, Ekaterini Kepetzis, Ivar Kvistad,
Catherine Leglu, Yixu Lue, Edward Phillips, Elizabeth Prettejohn,
Paula Straile-Costa, John Thorburn, Isabelle Torrance, Terence
Stephenson, and Amy Wygant.
