Thinking of setting Medea (Euripides) for the Leaving Certificate English Comparative Study? This free one-page guide tells you everything you need to decide.
At a glance: form, setting, dramatic structure, length, prescribed-list status and the play’s strongest comparative modes, plus a clear synopsis, the themes it carries, and an honest “before you teach” note on sensitive content (the central child murder, the poisoned-robe deaths of the princess and Creon, and references to Medea’s earlier killing of her brother).
It closes with partner-agnostic notes on how the play pairs in each comparative mode (Cultural Context, Literary Genre, Theme or Issue and General Vision & Viewpoint) so you can see at a glance whether it fits your course.
A companion Student Textbook and Teacher Guide with full exam-ready analysis and complete teaching support are available separately from The Prescribed Shelf (upon request, if not yet in store).
