Book Description
London: Faber. Good.. 1960. First Edition Thus. Paperback. 132pp including Introduction, Notes and Index of Proper Names. Aristophanes wrote 'Lysistrata' in 412 B.C. and produced it early in the following year at the Lenaia, the great Athenian festival of Dionysos. It is the last of the 3 comedies which the poet devoted to the subject of the Peloponnesian War; and, in spite of its almost unexampled ribaldry, it has a sombre depth, an intensity of meaning, that we do not find in the other 2 plays, the 'Acharnians' and the 'Peace'. Card covers slightly rubbed at spine edges, otherwise a clean copy in Good condition. .
