 | | Dagger was soon discarded because of the risk a public murder involves, and instead poison was chosen, since Creusa 1 had inherited two drops of Medusa 1's blood, which once Athena had given Erichthonius 2, her great-grandfather, who in turn handed them over to Erechtheus, her own father. | | | But as she did not dare to go against Apollo, they pushed her against her husband, and as she still refused, for old love and loyalty's sake, they pushed her against Ion 1; and since the latter was a complete unknown and a potential intruder, she yielded. | | | This is how the murderous servant was detected; and once the guests had forced him to reveal the plot, they went hunting Creusa 1, the alien lady, whom they intended to hurl from the precipice for planning murder within the precinct. |

| | Ion [c.418-4171] |
| | Creusa’s parrhesiastic role in the play is quite different from Ion&; for as a woman, Creusa will not use parrhesia to speak the truth about Athenian political life to the king, but rather to publicly accuse Apollo for his misdeeds. | | | Apollo does not speak the truth, he does not reveal what he knows perfectly well to be the case, he deceives mortals by his silence or tells pure lies, he is not courageous enough to speak himself, and he uses his power, his freedom, and his superiority to cover-up what he has done. | | | For there is the danger that because of the accusation made, the accused may retaliate in some way against his or her accuser. |

| | CAMWS 2003: Luca Grillo |
| | This paper argues that the Creusa episode is fundamental to the economy of book 2 of the Aeneid; more specifically, through allusions to earlier ‘husband-wife’ scenes, it marks Creusa as an ideal wife, while condemning Aeneas as both nescius and uncaring. | | | Does fefellit simply mean “escape notice” (Austin; Connington), or Aeneas is somehow blaming Creusa for her disappearance? | | | However the differences are not less striking: Orpheus calls his wife dulcis coniunx, and Aeneas is called by Creusa with the same expression. |
