Excerpt from Del Mito di Medea nella Tragedia Greca: Richerche
Dunque la tragedia d' Eschilo non contribuì allo qlgi mento del mito, e l'idea di collegare i due miti non fu ao cettata da altro scrittore. Se Apollodoro o Diodoro Siculo avessero trovato nelle loro fonti un accenno questa com binazione e ivi si fosse detto ch'essa risaliva Eschilo, ne avrebbero fatto menzione. Il silenzio loro fa supporre che la tragedia avesse incontrato poco favore e fosse rimasta ignota ai mitografi e ai compilatori, come ignota rimase Ovidio e Igino. Inoltre è evidente che il soggetto della tra gedia non era principalmente il mito di Medea, ma una parte del mito di Dioniso. La tragedia avrebbe ancora minore im portanza se si accettasse l'ipotesi di Bòttiger (cfr. Nanek, p. Ch'essa non fosse che un drama satirico ma non pos s_ediamo tali elementi da indurci accettare una siffatta ipotesi.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the development of the Medea myth as told by the three great Greek tragedians: Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides. The author explores the different ways in which these playwrights adapted the myth to suit their own dramatic purposes, and how their interpretations reflected the changing social and cultural values of their time. Beginning with Aeschylus' lost play about Medea and the Argonauts, the book moves on to Sophocles' two surviving tragedies on the subject, the Colchian Women and Scythians. The author argues that while Aeschylus may have portrayed Medea as a relatively minor character, Sophocles developed her into a complex and sympathetic figure whose actions can be understood in the context of her own suffering and the patriarchal society in which she lives. The book culminates with a detailed analysis of Euripides' famous tragedy, Medea, which has had a profound influence on Western literature and thought for centuries. The author shows how Euripides' play explores the themes of love, revenge, and the limits of human endurance, and how it has been interpreted in different ways throughout history. Ultimately, this book offers a comprehensive and insightful look at the evolution of one of the most enduring and fascinating myths in Western literature.
