Female Characters in Fragmentary Greek Tragedy, P.J. Finglass & Lyndsay Coo, eds.
3 of 5 stars
An interesting academic read of a collection of papers that grew out of a conference on Greek tragedy. The introduction was good and two papers really stood out. P.J. Finglass’s “Suffering in Silence: Victims of Rape on the Tragic Stage” (pp. 87-102) and Matthew Wright’s “Making Medea Medea” (pp. 216-243). The latter includes a list of all the known Greek tragedies that include Medea, a valuable resource on its own.
