Summary
WITCHES! To accompany the conversation with Antonia Aluko, this week Liv dives in to Ovid's versions of the witches Circe and Medea. Help keep LTAMB going by subscribing to Liv's Patreon for bonus content!
CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
Sources: Ovid's Metamorphoses translated by Allen Mandelbaum; Early Greek Myths by Timothy Gantz.
