Аннотация

Der Bauer Strepsiades versucht, sich um die Abzahlung von Schulden zu drücken, die sein missratener Sohn gemacht hat. Er sucht Hilfe bei Sokrates, dem Meister des Argumentierens. Bei ihm gibt er seinen Sohn in die Lehre, damit er die Kunst der Rechtsverdrehung studiere und den Vater vor dem Ruin rette. Doch der Plan schlägt fehl: Sein Sohn verprügelt Strepsiades, der daraufhin wütend Sokrates' Haus in Brand steckt.

Аннотация

Aristophanes's «Lysistrata» is one of the great comedies from classical antiquity. Central to the work is the vow by the women of Greece to withhold sex from their husbands until they end the brutal war between Athens and Sparta. A hilarious and decisively anti-war comedic drama, «Lysistrata» stands as one of the great works from the classical age of drama.

Аннотация

The second in a series of three comedies, ‘Peace’, along with ‘The Acharnians’ and ‘Lysistrata’, called for an end to the Peloponnesian war. The 'Peace' was brought out four years after 'The Acharnians' (422 B.C.), when the war had already lasted ten years. The leading motive is the same as in the former play—the intense desire of the less excitable and more moderate-minded citizens for relief from the miseries of war.
