Euripides' 'Medea' / Character Of Jason
[ send me this paper ]
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.
