LEONE EBREO from The Philosophy of Love 1535 translated by F FriedebergSeeley and Jean H Barnes Allegorical Meanings Elizabeth Johnston's November 2016 Atlantic essay called Medusa the original 'Nasty Woman.' Johnston goes on to say that as Medusa has been repeatedly compared to Hillary Clinton during the 2016 presidential election, she proves her merit as an icon, finding relevance even in modern politics. "Medusa has since haunted Western imagination, materializing whenever male authority feels threatened by female agency," writes Johnston. [30] Beyond that, Medusa's story is, Johnston argues, a rape narrative. A story of victim blaming, one that she says sounds all too familiar in a current American context. Pythian Ode 12). Noted by Marjorie J. Milne in discussing a red-figured vase in the style of Polygnotos, ca. 450–30 BC, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art; Milne noted that "It is one of the earliest illustrations of the story to show the Gorgon not as a hideous monster but as a beautiful woman. Art in this respect lagged behind poetry." (Marjorie J. Milne, "Perseus and Medusa on an Attic Vase" The Metropolitan Museum of Art Bulletin New Series, 4.5 (January 1946, pp. 126–130) 126.p.)

You're a human, in servitude to the Gods in one of their endless spa halls of luxury. Though you've recently gotten a promotion to personal servant of the contestants. Language: English Words: 1,251 Chapters: 1/? Comments: 8 Kudos: 125 Bookmarks: 20 Hits: 2,175 In Greek mythology, Medusa ( / m ɪ ˈ dj uː z ə, - s ə/; Ancient Greek: Μέδουσα, romanized: Médousa, lit.'guardian, protectress'), [1] also called Gorgo, was one of the three Gorgons. Medusa is generally described as a human female with living venomous snakes in place of hair; those who gazed into her eyes [ citation needed] would turn to stone. Most sources describe her as the daughter of Phorcys and Ceto, [2] although the author Hyginus makes her the daughter of Gorgon and Ceto. [3]

Roof ornament with Medusa's head. Etruscan, from Italy, 6th century BC. National Museum of Scotland, Edinburgh Although some of the excerpts were short and needed a clearer context, the work is recommended for its comprehensive exploration of Medusa through the ages, an exploration that reveals as much about each age as it does about the myth.

ISBN 0-253-20865-3 One dead fish meant nothing to the Sea God. He would have to move on like everything else in his immortal life. Yet why did it still hurt?

"The Timeless Myth of Medusa, a Rape Victim Turned Into a Monster". Broadly. Vice . Retrieved 5 December 2018. Seelig BJ. The rape of Medusa in the temple of Athena: aspects of triangulation in the girl. Int J Psychoanal. 2002 Aug;83(Pt 4):895–911. doi: 10.1516/00207570260172975. PMID 12204171. Jane Harrison has pointed out (Prolegomena to the Study of Greek Religion) that Medusa was once the goddess herself, hiding behind a prophylactic Gorgon mask: a hideous face intended to warn the profane against trespassing on her Mysteries. Perseus beheads Medusa: that is, the Hellenes overran the goddess's chief shrines, stripped her priestesses of their Gorgon masks, and took possession of the sacred horses—an early representation of the goddess with a Gorgon's head and a mare's body has been found in Boeotia. Bellerophon, Perseus's double, kills the Lycian Chimaera: that is, the Hellenes annulled the ancient Medusan calendar, and replaced it with another.
