Every resource I could find with information about Andromeda

Introduction:

Perseus by Daniel Ogden is the perfect introduction of Perseus and his surrounding mythology, which includes Andromeda

Primary sources:

Theoi is generally a great website if you wanna research mythology in general:

In Greek mythology Perseus was one of the most celebrated of the heroes. This second page in the Perseus series begins with the story of his

Topostext is also pretty good, tho it’s super slow for me for some reason:

Fragmentary plays. These sorts of writings are usually behind a subscriptions, these are screenshots I got while subscribed to Loeb Library:

Sophocles Andromeda Fragments:

💬 0 🔁 0 ❤️ 24 · There’s unfortunately very few fragments of Sophocles Andromeda than of Euripides Andromeda, but one thing I’m surprised n

Analysis:

Maritime-Related Cults in the Coastal Cities of Philistia during the Roman Period Legacy and change by Simona Rodan. This book is mainly about ancient Palestine but chapter 2 is about Jaffa, which is actually heavily tied to Andromeda’s myth.

Early Greek Myth: A Guide to Literary and Artistic Sources by Timothy Gantz. Again, Andromeda isn’t the main focus but her chapter along with Perseus is insightful.

Brill’s Companion to Euripides, Chapter 41, Affective Attachments in Some Late Tragedies of Euripides by Francis Dunn. This chapter talks about other plays too but has some pretty insightful analysis. It’s the first time I’ve learned that Euripides Andromeda was one of the first ancient Greek plays *ever* to depict two ppl (Perseus and Andromeda) falling in love on stage.

Euripides' Escape-Tragedies: A Study of Helen, Andromeda, and Iphigenia among the Taurians by Matthew Wright. We don’t know much about Euripides Andromeda but it has some parallels to Euripides other non-lost plays, which this book analyzes.

Untangling Blackness in Greek Antiquity by Sarah F. Derbew. This book doesn’t talk much about Andromeda but it’s great for ppl who want to know more about blackness in antiquity.

Who the fuck even started the “Mina is a reincarnation of Dracula’s wife” trend? Was it the 90s Dracula movie?

I feel like Dracula adaptations (at least the ones I’ve seen) put way too much attention on his historical counterpart and try to insert it into the story any way they could including shoving in the story about his unnamed first wife (fuck his second NAMED wife ig) and I don’t like it bc it removes the mystery and horror of the character, we know since the moment Jonathan stepped into the castle that Dracula had a long rich history but that doesn’t mean we should look at every nook and cranny of that history bc again the mystery does so much to make him a frightening threat.

#Dracula #Count Dracula #it’s giving the Sony making movies about villains without Spiderman so the stories are just hollow

I’ve been in Vietnam for less than a week yet I still miss Basbosa…

#I basically went to the louvre but it’s outside and really windy #I don’t like how they use a Neptune sculpture for Helios tho ngl

Favorite Studio Ghibli movies?

Whisper of the Heart, it really spoke to me on a personal level.

Have you watched Wuthering Heights 2011? Isn't perfect, but it's definitely better than the recent one (to be fair, the bar is very low)

No but I have heard of it. May check it out.

There should be a movie about Frankenstein's monsters, where the monster makes another monster, and the second monster is the nice, not evil Frankenstein that is in pop culture. and is called frankenstein fuck it

Lmao

#Frankenstein

The way I sat up when I saw this lol

#Vietnam posting yeah #won’t do it regularly bc WiFi is not guaranteed

I really appreciate how smart Jonathan is in the book, he realizes very quickly that he’s a prisoner but is patient enough to bid his time to plan an escape and make sure Dracula doesn’t catch on. Also he’s so real for that one scene where he watches Dracula crawl on the wall and think “I wish I had a gun to shoot that bitch”.

#dracula #jonathan harker

The “Dracula went after Mina bc she’s the reincarnation of his dead wife” thing is complete bullshit bc if that’s the case then why the fuck did Dracula go after Lucy first?

#Dracula #mina murray #lucy westenra

Wikipedia is so real for this

#this is for Dracula a love tale #I haven’t even finished reading Dracula yet I understand the novel better than this rapist #dracula

This is why no matter what, Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula and every tv show and musical out there will never be hated close to enough actually

#Jonathan going though the bullshit Perseus goes through omg #dracula #jonathan harker
