«Medea. Fiesta escénica con los textos de Eurípides, Séneca y Ovidio» is the play by Francisco Palencia Cortés, in paperback.
The play turns the myth of Medea into a stage text intended for dramatised reading, combining passages from Euripides, Seneca and Ovid in an adaptation by Francisco Palencia Cortés. The plot retains the tragic force of the character and develops the themes of revenge, love and power through dialogue and theatrical action.

For secondary school students and for theatre workshops or productions that want to approach the Greek and Latin classics.
Euripides was a Greek tragedian of classical Athens. Along with Aeschylus and Sophocles, he is one of the three authors of Greek tragedy whose name is ascribed to surviving plays. Some ancient scholars attributed ninety-five plays to him, but the Suda says it was ninety-two at most. Nineteen plays attributed to Euripides have survived more or less complete, although one of these (Rhesus) is often considered not to be genuinely his work. Many fragments survive from most of his other plays. More of his plays have survived intact than those of Aeschylus and Sophocles together, partly because his popularity grew as theirs declined: he became, in the Hellenistic Age, a cornerstone of ancient literary education, along with Homer, Demosthenes, and Menander.
