In Search of the Argonauts

The Remarkable History of Jason and the Golden Fleece

Beschreibung

Tells of a quest to the ends of the earth, of the villainous usurper King Pelias, of dragons' teeth, of the doom of Hylas, ravished to his end by nymphs who greatly desired him for his beauty, and of Jason's lust for the witch Medea, it speaks to us of more: of sex and gender; of identity and race; and, of colonisation and conquest.
