Resumo:The present thesis is composed of a critical and comparative study of Euripides’s Medea and Seneca’s Medea. We seek to reflect in the ways in which the different forms of misogyny are articulated in both works. We follow an investigative trail that begins by problematizing what is literature and what is drama. Moving forward, we seek to better understand the place of comparative studies in the current moment. After that, we analyze both plays separately to, finally, contrast one work with the other. For the study of misogyny, we invoke history and gender studies theorists and scholars. For the literary investigation of both dramatic works, we utilize critics and theorists of literary studies. What becomes clear, to us, is that misogyny in Euripides is supported on xenophobia and fear of the foreign, while in Seneca it is founded in the repudiation of immorality and irrationality. We seek to illustrate how both playwrights deal with the character Medea and, in a general way, with the discourses about women and the misogynistic discourses.
