The legend of her as a killer of children developed much later. Christa & Gerhard Wolf?s libretto for Georg Katzer?s composition is based on the novel Medea ? A Modern Retelling, published by Christa Wolf in 1995. Medea in Corinth shows typical parameters of an oratorio. However, Katzer forgoes the recitative, for example, that takes on the narrative function of the oratorio. The arias, duets, chorales, and fugues near the end of the sections are not part of Medea.
