Abstract:
Literature relies heavily on mythology. Myths are stories of deities, monsters or immortals which are transformed from one generation to the other. In addition to documenting the religious and cultural experiences of a specific community, myths also outline the consequent literary, artistic and dramatic customs. Some Greek myths have survived for thousands of years because they accurately depict historical events, cultural values, and trends. Among the most famous classical myths are the myths of Medusa and Medea. As for the myth of Medusa, the earliest known record was found in Theogony (700B

Abstract:
Medea is a representative female image in ancient Greek mythology. Her experience reflects the rise in feminist consciousness, and her image portrays the strong and unrepressed desire in Greek traditional culture. Medea illustrates her constant pursuit of a romantic relationship, and within her unrestrained character lays a lasting spirit. Medea's feminist consciousness is constantly awakened and developed and has experienced stages of awakening to expansion with the change in her relationship. Facing the betrayal of love, her brutal nature breaks out. In the later period, the "devil" side of

Abstract:
The 19th-century reinterpretations of Hellenic myths serve as an effective tool for discussing the female experience of exclusion and inclusion. Medea, one of the most notorious heroines of Greek mythology, recurrently permeated the Victorians’ consciousness, both in poetry and the visual arts. Traditionally, she is perceived as a filicide perpetrator, a femme fatale or a fallen woman. However, 19th-century British women poets represented Medea in a more subversive way. The present article explores how the mid-Victorian poet Augusta Webster (18371894) reimagines Medea as a woman confronting pe

Abstract:
The figure of Medea is indeed one of the most enigmatic and problematic characters of Greek mythology. In Euripides’ Medea, the problem becomes acute because it is not merely a vengeful character that the reader comes across, but a woman who in order to avenge her husband’s betrayal, chooses to kill her own children. And in traditional patriarchal society that is certainly not acceptable. In the recent past, Medea’s actions have presented her as a cruel hearted murderess, a passionate woman bent on revenge, a mortal woman emerging as a goddess through her actions, and even as one of the first

Abstract:
It is one thing to find Medea compelling, another to make her art, let alone funerary art. This article faces this complexity head on by examining Medea's visual identity within a sepulchral context. It interrogates her presence on Roman sarcophagi of the mid to late second century CE. The corpus is not insubstantial—nine intact relief panels plus further fragmentary pieces offer ample testament to Medea's presence in the funerary context. Beyond this sphere, Medea's emotionally charged legacy needs no introduction, and her characterisation—outsider, avenger, semi-divine sorceress, victim and

The conceptual basis of the work was the myth of Sophia Wisdom Divine, an artist painting the primary blueprint of the universe and inviting other artists to co-create (the muse and the artist).

Medea’s powerful ability to inspire and confuse is at the core of this study. The contradiction concerning Euripides’ character of Medea as a murderer and a victim will be explored in order to understand what implications this would have held for an ancient Greek audience. Thus the irregularities in this female character will be used to indicate the inconsistencies within the society from which Euripides was writing. Women’s lack of freedom in ancient Greece, their confinement to the house and their lack of opportunity to voice their opinions and concerns produced an imbalance in society. This

Abstract:
The Medea myth is one of the most enduring myths of Greek mythology and has been readapted for many different times and cultures. In 1985, Eduardo Manet, Mimi Barthélémy, and Fatima Soualhia collaborate on the play Ma’Déa. This new adaptation of the play takes the Greek myth and sets it in Haiti in 1946. This article uses Robert Stam’s concept of “revisionist adaptations” to examine the implications of the newly transposed historical context, the American occupation of Haiti (1915-1934), and the January Revolution of 1946. As well as how the addition of Haitian vodou allows Ma’Déa to reclaim her agency and reroot herself into her culture and community. Ultimately, this article demonstrates that the transposition of Medea into Haiti allows the authors to criticize American hegemony as well as revalorize Haitian cultural knowledge and practices.

Ancient Greek mythology has a significant place in modern Western culture. Swiss psychoanalyst Carl Gustav Jung believed that myths and mythological archetypes were the expression of people's collective unconscious. He used the archetypes to understand human psychology, as every archetype has strong personality traits that bring light to modern people's lives, because archetypal traits have reached today via collective unconscious. Archetypes are also significant figures contributing to science of communication that aim to analyze discourse, such that all of them have a different manner of discourse that is connected with their unique traits. Starting from this point, one of the most famous woman politician's, Hillary Clinton's, discourses in the 2016 United States presidential debates are analyzed on the purpose of revealing her traits related to ancient Greek goddesses.

Abstract:
From the Oracle of Dodona to modern GPS, mediation and migration have been closely interrelated. In fact, migration can be conceptualized as passage through a complex field of decisions (junctions, entries, exits, obstacles, connections) whose every bifurcation is coupled to a medium to direct the migrant in her path. This chapter discusses this nexus between manticism and narratives of migration with regard to Greek mythology. In this respect, the shipwrecked alien Odysseus depends on a series of media; he descends to the underworld to consult the seer Tiresias as to how to operate in what Michel Serres calls a precultural topology of seams and fissures (the notorious vagueness of such auguries reflects both the uncertainties of migration and the rate of noise in media transmissions). Similarly, Oedipus’ visit at the Oracle of Delphi constitutes a crucial point in the mythological discourse as well as the protagonist’s topographical parcourse; it transforms the territory into a field of connections, alternatives, decisions, and catastrophes—a ‘tragic landscape’, which George Hadjimichalis’s installation Schiste Odos translates into various techniques of representation (scale models, maps, oil paintings, aerial photographs). Finally, such medializations also touch the migrant’s body. Derrida describes Oedipus at Colonus as a figure of transference and placelessness—marked, in Sophocles, by the unknown location of his grave—who nevertheless allows the founding of a new community, thus exhibiting the foreign as a politically and culturally creative factor.

Abstract:
Science fiction and the ancient world have been represented in film and on TV since the beginning of both media. This chapter narrows focus further on the intersection of antiquity and science fiction as each medium developed throughout the twentieth century and into the twenty-first. The chapter ranges from early examples of science fiction films in the 1950s, though more examples in the 1960s, to the advent of Star Trek, which over several separate episodes launches a three-pronged attack on mythology and religion, the historical realities of ancient Rome, and even the ideas and pseudo-scientific beliefs of the ancient Greeks. Star Wars, Battlestar Galatica and the Matrix films take the story further forward.
