Jason and Medea's marriage, favored by the gods, represents an attempt at a union of opposites very far from each other. They represent the \u003cem\u003emasculine \u003c\/em\u003eand \u003cem\u003efeminine\u003c\/em\u003e principles, covering a wide range of psychological, sociological, and historical aspects. This synthesis fails. In the myth, as Euripides presents it, the failure is caused by Jason's regression and submission to the exclusivity of the patriarchal principle -- the Old King. Medea, who not only represents the \u003cem\u003efeminine\u003c\/em\u003e but also the forces of Nature and Transformation, is profoundly incompatible with this regression. She reacts! She destroys and creates havoc. This is what the unconscious does when it is not heard or denied. In the end Medea is saved by the gods, the divine principles or psychic laws that regulate the laws of Nature and Transformation in the \u003cem\u003epsyche\u003c\/em\u003e. They support her to the bitter end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePreface \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePART ONE \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Medea Rage \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Myth of Medea \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEuripides: Medea \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePART TWO \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHistorical and Cultural Background \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEuripides' Place in Greek Theatre in Fifth Century BC \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Truth of Medea for the Greeks \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Universality of Medea's Truth \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePART THREE \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEdith \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJason \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMedea \u0026amp; Jason \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Poet and the Women \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConcluding Remarks \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eEpilogue \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBibliography \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anita S.
