Sensitive: " I am far too prone to tears, too full of tears.. It is the sudden ending of my quarrel with your father which makes them flow

The message the author portrays about life as it pertains to the society and culture of that era is the placement of women. The author recognizes that position of women and the lower-ranking to men is unfair, especially in the social order of greece. Yet, Medea isnt a really a feminist role model. The author shows that difficulties that transpire women. He gave women that suffered and have been impacted.
1. Temper and Energy
- Throughout the story Medea is known for a person of utmost emotion and behavior. She surrendered all for her intense love for jason. Yet because of Jasons acts and betrayals her love had been converted into rage.

-Medea represents Light vs. Darkness because Jason claims his actions against Medea are for the benefit of their children, making him light, but Medea refuses this and plots to kill his soon to be wife.
- Medea is a combination of female hero with aspects of the Gothic hero. She has qualities of the female hero for she has magical ability and is intellectual and independent but she does terrible things to help Jason who she loves. Jason have her the qualities of a gothic hero.
- Medea represents as an "uncurable grief". The purpose for this is a women happily married with her husband and including two kids. Then having all of this gone because her husband wants to go marry another woman, which is Glauce. This created many conflicts between Jason and Medea.
-Provide an example of the “scapegoat” archetype
An example of a scapegoat situation would be the two children of Medea and Jason. Medea tells them to give the new bride of Jason a coronet and a dress. They go ahead and give Glauce the gifts and she dies automatically. Now her kids are guilty of murder.

-Medea is flat and stagnant because she is in a miserable place, she is a killer and lets passion rule her actions. On the other hand Medea is not a total monster, even though she revels in the gruesome deaths of Creon and Glauke, she shows a good amount of motherly affection towards her two boys. But at the end when she kills them it shows how crazy Medea is.
-Medea lets passion rule her actions which makes her indirect, Jason is direct because they say what his character is straightforward and they show that he is an unsympathetic character, the Nurse is direct because from the beginning they show her as Medea's caretaker, the tutor is direct because they show how he is the tutor for the children and that he mainly acts as a messenger, King Aegeus is indirect because they tell you who he is while reading the story, and Creon is a direct character because they tell you straightforward who he is and what he does to Medea.
-The Eurpides protrayed Medea as such a violent person because Medea is the type of person that is mad at the whole society and she has it bad, she's foreigner, making the people of Corinth distrust her, and she's a woman so she has next to no rights in the Greek society.
- Medea represents the woman of her era as bad, but they made bad circumstances they cannot control.
-Medea is different from the other woman because she is headstrong and opinionated. Medea defies perceptions of gender by exhibiting both male and female characteristics. Her ability to separate herself from her womanly emotions at times and perform acts that society does not see woman capable of doing.
-Medea's foil is the nurse because she just wants to live a simple life and she also knew what Medea was going go do.

-Euripides purpose for this was to show that even though men are usually portrayed in such a manner, women are more than capable to fill those shoes in when needed to. In addition by doing his he shows us the first signs of a feminist woman.
- At this time it caused many men to be outraged in a manner that should have been expected due to the fact that Jason was clearly inferior to Medea intelligence wise.
- The authors did so to compare themselves to the Gods which they worshiped without being disrespectful to them.

-Medea chooses to exact her revenge on Creon and the princess with a poisoned crown, a crown that represents Creon and Jason's having polluted the royal line with unjust ruler ship.

The door to Medea's house remains closed for the entirely of the play and all of the events and speeches are delivered outside of the house. The door represents more than one metaphorical "barrier".

Chimeras are mythical creatures, like griffins and centaurs, that are composed of different animal parts joined together in one body. These parts are sometimes depicted as being in conflict with each other, meaning the animal.

-Euripides appeals to audiences' to show them how different Medea is from other woman. He wants men to respect women and women not to depend on them.
- Euripides appeals to audiences' and pathos by letting Medea have mixed emotions and the nurse to feel scared of what she would do to complete her revenge.
Ex: pg. 348
Medea uses her children as an excuse for Creon to let her stay longer in Corinth
Simile
: “ she glares like a lioness with whelps” page 343

-Metaphor
: “My enemis let out the sail. page 346

-Hyperbole
: “ I am plunged in such a depth of grief I came out here to tell the earth and sky Medea’s catastrophe.” Page 339

Litotes

Meiosis
- ”In point a fact, my knowledge does not amount to very much.” pg.347

Judicial
- “ I order you– you with your black-faced fury lowering against your lord.”pg.346

-Medea's conflict starts with Jason leaving her for another woman and continues on to Creon banishing Medea and her sons. He banished them because Medea was saying bad things about the marriage, and the king was afraid she might do something drastic, like kill everyone. Then later Creon decides to let her stay one more day. Then as soon as the king is out of range, Medea swears to murder him and his daughter.
-Medea, Jason, and Creon's conflicts are all external because Medea has issues with each one of them where she even plots to kill them, Jason leaves Medea for another woman and then this leads to Medea wanting revenge, and then Creon banishes Medea from the city.
-Medea, Jason, and Creon's fulfill man against man and man against society because when Medea was banish from the city that was man against society and man against man is when she plots to kill the people who hurt her. And when Jason abandons Medea to marry another woman that's man against man because what he did made Medea want revenge against everyone. Also with Creon he fulfills man against man as well because he banishes Medea from the city.
