Sexual Jealousy and Erôs in Euripides’ Medea

Abstract

should like to thank Chris Carey for his extremely detailed comments on earlier drafts of this chapter, and Douglas Cairns, Nick Lowe, and David Konstan, whose comments-at the Erôs conference or on subsequent review of the chapter-have also been greatly appreciated. I should also like to thank the Leverhulme Trust, who funded me during the latter part of my work on this volume. 1 Konstan (2006) 219-43. 2 There has been a lively debate for some decades over the universality or cultural specificity of emotions in general, a debate whose principal strands are summarized by Konstan (2006) 7-27; see also D.L. Cairns (2008). Among non-Classical scholarship, P.E. Griffiths (1997) and Reddy (2001) 3-62 provide useful summaries and critiques.
