Medea and the Network of Connectivity Between the Barbarian Region of Colquida and the Civility of Athens in the Classical Period
Keywords:
Medea, maritime connectivity, Black Sea, Hellenes, barbariansAbstract
In this essay, we propose to analyze, through Euripides’ Medea, the quotes that draw our attention to the maritime connectivity between the Black Sea and the Greek regions bordering the Mediterranean and Aegean seas, considered areas that have a long history of contacts and migrations. Medea’s dramaturgy draws our attention to the process of connectivity between Greeks in different regions of the ancient world. However, this maritime connection has the peculiarity of being of the least studied, and therefore known, aspect of the Black Sea Region’s History in the Western Academic Universe. We can attest to both the scarcity and the lack of analyses performed by us, historiography researchers in Latin America.
