Aeschylus' 'Prometheus Bound' / A Godly Love vs. Human Love
[ send me this report ]
In this 5 page essay, comparisons are made between the role of love in 'Prometheus Bound' and 'Hippolytus.'

Additional examples of love's predicament are provided from Prometheus Bound as well -- to further support this thesis (i.e., the case of Iago, etc;). Bibliography lists one additional source.

Socrates / Was He Genuinely Religious?
[ send me this report ]
In 5 pages the author discusses whether or not Socrates was genuinely religious. Based on ' 'Euthyphro', 'Apology', and 'Crito', which are works by Plato about his teacher, Socrates, could it be said that Socrates is a genuinely religious man? Why or why not? Yes, Socrates was a genuinely religious man. However, he did not share the religion of the Athenians. He was a martyr to a new, better religion.' Bibliography lists 3 sources.
Filename: Socrel2.wps

Archetypal Woman
[ send me this report ]
A 5 page research paper comparing 'Medea' with Penelope in 'The Odyssey.' The writer posits and shows that while Penelope is the 'little woman,' true to the image of a loving, dedicated wife, Medea represents the opposite in Euripides' play. Both of these are important to religious and cultural myths. However, even with these diverse purposes, the authors guarantee the image of the fall as it relates to women so that the myth of womanhood is carried through. Bibliography lists the 2 original sources.

Euripides' 'Medea'
[ send me this report ]

Euripides' 'Medea' / Character Of Jason
[ send me this report ]
A 5 page summary of the character of Jason in Euripides' novel, 'Medea.' In this ancient story we see a woman scorned by her husband and seeking revenge. Jason has essentially abandoned her and sought a new wife who will bring him social standing and wealth. He is a weak power seeking individual who is not altogether a very intelligent man. He gives Medea simple-minded excuses for his behavior. In addition to being power hungry and lacking intelligence he is shown to be a man of little wisdom. No additional sources cited.

Lysistrata vs. Medea / A Comparison
[ send me this report ]
A 5 page comparison between the two classic Greek plays : Lysistrata (by Aristophanes) and Medea (by Euripides). Although a number of inherent similarities are pointed out, the writer defines Lysistrata as a comedy and Medea as a tragedy. One of the key differences between the two central characters was that Lysistrata -- from the very beginning -- sought to end violence. Medea, in contrast, ultimately used violence in an attempt to prove her point. No Bibliography.

The Role of the Barbarian in Euripides' 'Medea'
[ send me this report ]
A five page paper looking at Euripides' classic play in terms of the way he characterizes the title character, Medea.
