Medea is the “historical” name of a woman who suffers all the consequences of war. What to do in this torment? Medea either suffers her condition or turns into a lioness (Euripides, Mishima) and goes off to war. Her war is, however, like all ‘wars of the poor’, a war of liberation (Pasolini, Olavo). Medea also suggests the possibility of a definitive exit from the world of war created by patriarchy and imperialism: a permanent wandering on the chariot of the Sun (Giordano Bruno). mar., 16 janv. 2024 08:38:38 +0100 mer., 17 avril 2024 08:38:43 +0200 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/965 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/1046 In these two rewritings of the myth, Medea is a housewife, pregnant with her third child, dedicated to home and family and a foreigner who arrived in Italy with the dream of a better future, imprisoned in a prostitution racket by the man she loves and who becomes the father of her twins. For both Medeas, infanticide becomes an extreme act of liberation from society’s control over women through the ethics of care; a way to de-moralize gender and deconstruct the notion of femininity. jeu., 18 janv. 2024 14:02:10 +0100 jeu., 15 févr. 2024 13:42:19 +0100 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/1046
