The article aims to examine how the motif of killing a child by one of his parents, regardless of the age of victim (abortion is however excluded from this analysis), functions in dramatic works (practicurally in tragedies) and why it can by treated as a special challenge to present this deed in mentioned type of literature. The analysis bases on the selected dramas — especially the Medea by Euripides. Many other characters noted derive also from the ancient Greek-Roman literature, that often refers to the mythology. At the end is also investigated, why Medea, though the motif of the killing own children is repellent and often not easy be presented, appears continuously in literature (not only in dramatic works).

The name Suebi is one of the basic terms in ancient literature concerning the area between rives Rhine and Danube. Like any descriptive term applied from outside, it developed and acquired various levels and contents. The study is concerned with the formation of the concept in Caesar’s Memoirs of the Gallic War. The author considers the familiar problem of the origin of the work. It is still unclear whether Caesar wrote it all at once or gradually. This also concerns the question of the Suebi. In this context, the author considers the Suebi as they appear in Book Six. The Suebi here recall the Suebi in Book Four and they remain Caesar’s undefeated enemies, but they also have more realistic features. They appear to be only one of the tribes, which seek refuge from the Romans in forests. The study offers an explanation of these contradictions and analyses their place in individual parts of the work.
