Aristophanes Book order
Aristophanes was a playwright of ancient Athens, whose surviving works represent the sole extant examples of the "Old Comedy" style. His plays are celebrated for their sharp satire, tackling the political and social issues of 5th-century-BC Athens with wit and insight. He offered commentary on matters ranging from the Peloponnesian War and the structure of the city-state to the role of women in public life and the influence of philosophers on public opinion. These enduring comedies have been translated into numerous languages and continue to be performed and adapted, testament to their lasting impact on theater.
