  • "<DIV><DIV>Classic comedy (5th century BC) concerns the vow of Greek women to withhold sex from their husbands until the men agree to end the disastrous wars between Athens and Sparta. Exuberant battle of the sexes with underlying anti-war theme.</DIV></DIV>"@en
  • "In Lysistrata a band of women tap into the awesome power of sex in order to end a war."@en
  • "In Aristophanes' most popular play, sex is a powerful agent of reconciliation. As war ravages ancient Greece, a band of women, led by Lysistrata, promise to deny their husbands all sex until they stop fighting. This volume of Lysistrata brings the play up to date with modern scholarship, providing an account of its history and containing new information about the comic theater and its social and political context. Lysistrata not only brims with topical references to social life, religion, and politics in classical Athens; it is also one of the best sources for information on the life of women in antiquity, offering a unique glimpse of their everyday life."
  • "Lysistrata is one of the few surviving plays of Aristophanes. It tells a humorous account of a woman who works to end the Peloponnesian War. Upon its publication in 411 BC, it was deemed "unacceptably subversive" by the Greek government and was later banned in the United States in the 1800s."@en
  • "The first new edition in almost sixty years, this volume of Aristophanes' Lysistrata brings the play completely up to date with modern scholarship, providing the first complete account of its history and containing new information about the comic theater and its social and political context. Lysistrata not only brims with topical references to social life, religion, and politics in classical Athens; it is also one of our best sources for information on the life of women in antiquity, offering a unique glimpse of their everyday life."@en
  • "English translation of Aristophanes' most popular play with its lively imaginative plot and memorable heroine. Focus Classical Library provides close translations with notes and essays to provide access to understanding Greek culture."@en
  • "Lysistrata - The Original Classic Edition."@en
  • "Pour mettre fin à la guerre qui ensanglante le monde grec, les femmes d'Athènes, sous la conduite de Lysistrata, ont trouvé une solution : elles priveront de leurs faveurs tous ces vaillants guerriers tant qu'un traité ne viendra pas mettre fin aux hostilités."
  • "American Airlines, Friends of the Kennedy Center, Smithsonian Institution present the American Educational Theatre Association, American National Theatre and Academy production of the American College Theatre Festival. The University of Oklahoma School of Drama presents "Lysistrata," by Aristophanes, English version by Dudley Fitts, directed by Bernard Hepton, restaged by Charles C. Suggs, set design by Raymond D. Larson, stage manager Keith O'Leary, costume design by Nancy E. Gade, lighting design by Bennet Averyt, choreography by Helen Gregory, music written and arranged by Dr. Russell Mathis, props designed and created by David Mardon."@en
  • "Presents an English translation of "Lysistrata," Arisophanes's 411 B.C. play about an Athenian woman who leads her fellow Greek wives in a sex strike until their husbands stop warring with each other; and includes two additional dramas by the ancient Greek playwright."
  • "If you are either learning Catalan, or learning English as a second language (ESL) as a Catalan speaker, this book is for you. There are many editions of Lysistrata. This one is worth the price if you would like to enrich your Catalan-English vocabulary, whether for self-improvement or for preparation in advanced of college examinations. Each page is annotated with a mini-thesaurus of uncommon words highlighted in the text. Not only will you experience a great classic, but learn the richness of the English language with Catalan synonyms at the bottom of each page. You will not see a full translation of the English text, but rather a running bilingual thesaurus to maximize the reader's exposure to the subtleties of both languages."@en
  • "A woman's strike for peace using the most powerful weapon in the feminine arsenal forms the core of this the most perfectly constructed and continuously popular of Aristophanes' plays."@en
  • "Aristophanes' play, Lysistrata, takes place toward the end of the Peloponnesian War and centers on the lives of the soldiers' wives. One woman, Lysistrata, under the impression that a man's libido is ultimately his driving force in life, comes up with an interesting peace solution: to deny their husbands sexual relations until they can settle on a peace agreement that will end the war. However, Lysistrata's strategy effectively creates even more war than before as the sexes begin to feud with each other. Aristophanes' play is both comic and poignant as it reveals the relationship between men a."@en
  • "A comedic play from the classical age of drama in which the women of Greece vow to withhold sex from their husbands until they end the brutal war between Athens and Sparta."@en
  • "Aristophanes helped shape comedy ... despite their often fantasical premises, were fairly consistently concerned with contemporary politics and social institutions. ... mildly aristocratic ... patriotic ... suspicious of social innovation ... sympathetic to the struggles of the common people ... unrestrained in insult ... exuberantly bawdy."
  • "One of the few plays that survived intact from the heyday of ancient Grecian drama, Lysistrata is an enormously influential work of satirical comedy. In order to bring an end to a destructive and never-ending war, the women of Greece take a temporary vow of chastity, pledging to remain abstinent until the conflict ends. As can be expected, mayhem -- and hilarity -- ensues."@en
  • "Immortal Greek play in which women play hard to get in effort to make men-folk stop waging war."@en
  • ""Aristophanes' great anti-war drama glorifies the power of fertility in the face of destruction. Mr. Rudall's new translation recaptures the splendid variety of diction in Aristophanes, so that instead of a heavily poetic presentation the play becomes highly theatrical."--"@en
