Author Description

Medea Tragedia... Centone Virgiliano... è una riscrittura in forma di centone della tragedia di Medea, attribuita a Hosidius Geta, poeta e tragediografo romano del II-III secolo d.C. L'opera riprende versi tratti dalle opere di Virgilio per narrare la storia di Medea, figura mitologica celebre per la sua vendetta e il suo infanticidio. Questo centone virgiliano offre una prospettiva unica sulla tragedia greca attraverso il filtro della poesia latina, combinando elementi classici in una forma letteraria innovativa. Quest'opera rappresenta un esempio significativo di come i temi e le figure della mitologia greca siano stati reinterpretati e rielaborati nella cultura romana. La tragedia di Medea, con le sue tematiche di amore, tradimento e vendetta, continua a esercitare un fascino duraturo nel tempo.
