Summary | "Médée: tragédie" by baron de Hilaire Bernard de Requeleyne Longepierre is a dramatic work written in the late 17th century. This tragedy reinterprets the well-known myth of Medea, a figure rooted in ancient Greek literature, exploring themes of love, betrayal, and vengeance. The play is defined by its emotional intensity and its focus on Medea's inner turmoil as a woman scorned, reflecting the duality of her character as both victim and villain. The story begins with Jason abandoning his wife, Medea, for Creüse, the daughter of King Creon of Corinth. Heartbroken and enraged, Medea plots her revenge while navigating her feelings of hurt and rage. As she grapples with her choices, she ultimately succumbs to darker impulses, leading to a catastrophic conclusion where she takes the lives of her own children and confronts Jason in a tragic denouement. The play captures the profound psychological conflict within Medea, showcasing her transformation from a wronged lover to a vengeful figure, and ultimately demonstrates the devastating consequences of betrayal and the complexities of passion and fury.
