Medea by Euripides

Anyone read the Greek play ?

In your opinion were Medeas actions justified?

Oh I do love the greek plays full of some of the most funniest sexual innuendo's ever.

^Ever real Lysistrata? By Aristophanes. Horrible and wonderful innuendo, very shocking ; ).

I havn'e read Medea, sorry!

I think they were justified in her own mind. More than anything I think it is a great example of how hate and vengence can destroy.

Oh yes I've read Lysistrata, and am planning on reading other Aristophanes plays. My boyfriend is a huge reader and recently got given a list with all the books one must read in order to classify themselves as well read, so we will slowly be working through them.

Personally, I think she had a screw loose. I can understand her being angry based on the actions that Jason took, but she took it beyond the "pissed off" line in my mind.

The difference between my thinking and the play: 2000+ years and anti-depressants :P
