Journal Article
La figure de Médée sur les vases grecs
1996
Overview
Après un rapide recensement des divers types d'actions dans lesquelles les peintres de vases attiques et italiotes ont figuré Médée, nous nous attacherons à l'étude des vases du IVe siècle provenant des ateliers d'Italie du Sud. Même si les imagiers ont utilisé des thèmes que des tragédies ont mis en scène, ils ont reconstruit une histoire tragique avec leurs moyens propres qui ne sont pas ceux des poètes. Ils ont souligné l'écart qui sépare Médée la barbare du monde grec et ils ont inscrit ces images dans un climat religieux et social différent de celui de l'Athènes du Ve siècle. La fonction des vases sur lesquels figure Médée, vases funéraires, et les lieux de provenance, des régions indigènes le plus souvent, permettent d'avancer quelques hypothèses de commentaire. After a quick listing of the various types of actions in which the painters of Attic or Italic vases represented Medea, we shall concentrate on a study of the fourth century vases from the workshops of Southern Italy. Although the imagists did use themes staged by the tragedies, they nevertheless built up a tragic story through devices of their own which are not those of the poets. They underscored the gap that divided Medea the barbarian from the Greed world and they set those images within a different framework from that of fifth-century Athens. The function of the vases on which Medea is represented - funereal vases - and the places they come from, native areas in most cases, allow us to put forward a few tentative comments.
