How hubris is shaping the latest Greek-Turkish confrontation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hubris was the word used by the ancient Greeks to describe extreme pride or arrogance, leading to a disastrous fall. In Euripidesâs play Medea, hubris might be one of the characters, so deeply is it embedded in the drama: Jason portrays hubris in his arrogant betrayal of his wife, Medea, and she, in her own hubris, kills her children in revenge.
