MEDEA


Daughter of King Aeetes of Kolchis, she fell in love with Jason during his recovery of the Golden fleece, and returned with him to Iolkos, dismembering her younger brother on the way, to slow down her vengeful pursuing father. Ten years later, her husband conceived a passion for Kreusa, and married her. Fuming at this treatment, Medea steeped a costly dress in posion, and sent it to her rival, this bringing about her death. She also slew Kreusa's father, Kreon, and put to death all the children she herself had borne to Jason.Then she fled, arriving at last in Athens, where she lived for a time with Aegeus, until the intervention of Theseus precipitated her departure, she cursing both father and son.
