↑ Filippo Carlà, Irene Berti Ancient Magic and the Supernatural in the Modern Visual and Performing Arts 1350007943 2016 -"..., Reimann's work, following Franz Grillparzer's Medea (1820), the primary source for the libretto, can safely be ascribed to the second type.3 Reimann's social and political interpretation of Medea's magical abilities allows him to reflect on the violence of the power that fears and distrusts – but at the same time needs – the unknown, the foreigner."
