From its beginning, the story of Medusa has fascinated and terrified listeners and readers--for what is most compelling in this myth is Medusa's intrinsic doubleness: the woman who could turn a careless onloker to stone has become a symbol of all that is irresistable. The Medusa Reader is the first major anthology of primary and critical material on this enigmatic figure. Collecting all the essential passages and commentary of Medusa from classical times to pop culture, this collection will appeal to art historians, feminists, classicists, cultural critics, and anyone interested in mythology and the arts.
