Traditional Aeschylus and modern Euripides compete in \u003ci\u003eFrogs\u003c\/i\u003e. In \u003ci\u003eAssemblywomen\u003c\/i\u003e, Athenian women plot against male misgovernance. The humor and morality of \u003ci\u003eWealth\u003c\/i\u003e made it the most popular of Aristophanes’s plays until the Renaissance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs with the three previous volumes, Henderson has edited the Greek text anew, and provided a useful and lively translation. Each play features a general introduction containing a plot summary and discussion of major themes, a note on the text, and a list of major annotated editions… In just over four years Henderson has edited and translated the four volumes of the new Loeb edition of Aristophanes. Every volume is well edited, succinctly annotated, and so translated as to engage the reader in the humor and seriousness of the comedies. It is likely there will be more readers studying Aristophanes rather than fewer ones with the publication of this final volume. -- Carl Anderson * Scholia Reviews *","brand":"Harvard University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48865503773015,"sku":"9780674995963","price":23.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780674995963.jpg?v=1722274282","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/frogs-assemblywomen-wealth-trans-hendersongreek-9780674995963","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
