Medea_And_Jason__Who_Is_To_Blame_

Medea And Jason: Who Is To Blame' MEDEA AND JASON: WHO IS TO BLAME' Medea was a princess, sorceress, mother, and most definitely a woman. In this travesty written by Euripides we learn of the distraught Medea and the murders she commits. We read and discover the role her beloved husband, Jason, played in them. Throughout the course of things we read of love and lost, hurt, violence, murder and death. Jason did not physically commit any of these horrific murders but is far from guiltless. The marriage of Jason and Medea was not exactly standard but was a commitment made between the two parties that Medea took very seriously. She was made to fall in-love with him and could not change that. This was against her will. Jason took a new bride-to-be and abandoned her and his children. He professed his love for them but it was evident that he only wanted to better himself and was selfish. This abandonment is what begat Medea’s plot for revenge. “A soul bitten into wrong'” This was the question posed by the Nurse of Medea’s intentions. It was undeniable that Medea’s thoughts and mental stability was not what they had been before Jason’s departure. jason, medea, children, woman, took, much, medea’s, made, love, heart, guilty, told, things, read, parties, one’s, murders, murder, mind, making, life, foreign, felt, done, distraught, death, crazy, broke, bride, against, wrong, written
