############################# Video Source: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XeLIpwxmcU

This episode looks at Euripides’s play Medea to illustrate the interconnected questions of companionateness as the basis for the marriage between Medea and Jason and how on the collapse of their marriage she seeks to remind him of that foundation by stripping him of all the supports of philia. I will show how in killing her two sons, Medea progressively strips herself of all human sentiment until she is transformed into an implacable and vengeful force of nature. • +++++++++++++ • Follow on: • Twitter: / criticreading • Facebook: / criticreadingwriting • Instagram: / critic.reading.writing • +++++++++++++ • Other Related Videos: • ON TRAGEDY - Aristotle, Job, Ophelia: • ON TRAGEDY: Aristotle, Job, Ophelia • SOPHOCLES' Philoctetes - On Pity and Conscience: • SOPHOCLES' Philoctetes - On Pity and ... • TONI MORRISON, Beloved (Part 2) - On Time and Memory: • TONI MORRISON, Beloved (Part 2) - On ...
