Medea, la heroína de esta obra, se encuentra en una situación límite: es abandonada por su esposo, quien se casa con la hija del rey de Corinto. Sintiéndose engañada y menospreciada, Medea actúa desesperadamente: asesina a la futura esposa de su esposo y a sus dos hijos. Eurípides aprovechó este personaje mítico para poner en escena las interioridades emocionales de una mujer humillada. Con una visión que trascendía su tiempo, Eurípides da vida a una Medea que reclamaba los mismos derechos que los hombres.

Euripides was a Greek tragedian of classical Athens. Along with Aeschylus and Sophocles, he is one of the three authors of Greek tragedy whose name is ascribed to surviving plays. Some ancient scholars attributed ninety-five plays to him, but the Suda says it was ninety-two at most. Nineteen plays attributed to Euripides have survived more or less complete, although one of these (Rhesus) is often considered not to be genuinely his work. Many fragments survive from most of his other plays. More of his plays have survived intact than those of Aeschylus and Sophocles together, partly because his popularity grew as theirs declined: he became, in the Hellenistic Age, a cornerstone of ancient literary education, along with Homer, Demosthenes, and Menander.
