Medea kills. But why? For her murders, mythological sources provide plenty of explanations: She kills as an abandoned wife, as a vengeful princess, as an insane melancholic person, or as a hurt woman. Yet, these attempts to locate her motivation in a social, political, psychological, or even biological sphere don’t do Medea justice at all. Instead of locating her motivation in one of these categories, I will develop Medea as a transgressive figuration of the in-between, that is: a figuration that cannot be located in one category or the other and I will consider the murders of Euripides’ Medea as a catalyst that is capable of setting this figuration in motion. Whenever Medea kills, she can indeed be located in a category. Yet, as soon as each murder makes the process of localization possible, the figuration of Medea has already moved into another in-between.
