Medea, “The Murderer.”

      Traditionally, stories do not usually have a content or ending like the story Medea does. This is one of the most cold hearted, and evil stories I have read in old literature. The plot itself is very well developed, revengeand love has a major impact in understanding why Medea takes such impulsive actions towards the ones she supposedly loved the most. Notoriously, the author gives us an introduction to Medea’s personally when he tells us that she killed her own father for the love of Jason. And she based this action upon her fathers’ refusal of letting her marry and live with Jason. This is a hint to be taken into consideration when trying to find an answer to all the things she does. Her way of seeking revenge goes beyond the love for her kids, especially when she is betrayed by her loved Jason. At this stage the story takes a turn that I had never expected, she goes as far as killing her own kids, just to look for revenge and make Jason regret his actions against her. I personally believe that a women, in no circumstances, should commit an act like Medea did, they should first put their kids before anything or anyone.
