| | Medusa in Myth and Literary History |
 | | Medusa's blood is therefore the epitome of the 'pharmakon', while she herself -- as is shown by the apotropaic function of her mask -- is a 'pharmakos'. | | | Medusa's head, an apparently simple motif linked to the myth of Perseus, was freed through being severed and cut loose from its 'moorings' by the hero in the remote depths of the world. | | | The individual is considered to have been the victim of his own reflection, which absolves the victimizer (Perseus, the group) from all blame. |

| | The decapitated head of Medusa was used by Perseus to kill the sea monster Cetus. | | | Once Perseus beheaded Medusa with some help from Athena (who guided his hand) and Hermes, two monsters sprang from the drops of her blood. | | | This is a confirmation of the technical rule according to which a multiplication of penis symbols signifies castration.” |

| | On "Medusa" |
| | The hero of the Medusa myth cannot confront those bare eyes--cannot look at her as the subject. | | | Clair closes his speculations with the uneasiness that modern art raises in the civilized: "The 'dripping' of Pollock [who was nicknamed 'Jack the Dripper'] is no other, in fact, than the blood running out of the cut-off head of Medusa, tracing the aleatory figure of our perdition." | | | The speaker violates some unknown taboo by entering this site of freedom and movement, and in punishment is turned to stone. |
