These four plays, translated into blank verse by C. A. Wheelwright, present to us the wide range of this ancient playwright's fertile imagination. From war and peace to politics and society to the relationships between mena nd women, no topic is off-limits.

The Peloponnesian War drags on and on with no end in sight, and the tough-minded Lysistrata has had enough. Men! - always making stupid decisions that affect everyone. Women's opinions are never listened to. Taking matters into her own hands, Lysistrata convenes a meeting of women from warring city-states across Greece and calls for a sex strike. It's a hard sell, but in the end, it is agreed: They will withhold sex until the war is brought to hasty a close.

Aristotle's Metaphysics was the first major study of the subject of metaphysics - in other words, an inquiry into 'first philosophy', or 'wisdom'. It differs from Physics which is concerned with the natural world: things which are subject to the laws of nature, things that move and change, are measurable. In Metaphysics, the study falls on 'being qua being' - being insofar as it is being; the causes and principles of being, the causes and principles of substances.

Lysistrata is an ancient Greek comedy by Aristophanes, which was originally performed in Athens in 411 BC. It is a comic account of a woman's extraordinary quest to terminate the Peloponnesian War between Greek city states, by advocating that the women deny all the men of the land any sex. At a meeting, Lysistrata persuades the women of the warring cities to withhold sexual privileges from their men. She has also persuaded the older women of Athens to seize the Acropolis.

Loaded with cryptic, nearly indecipherable inside jokes and double entendres, this early comedy of Aristophanes has a simple, anti-war premise that resounds down the centuries. On flimsy pretexts, greedy politicians have embroiled the nation of Athens in war after war after war. Dicæopolis is Everyman, an ordinary, plain-speaking citizen fed up with the bumbling, belligerence, and insincerity of the professional leaders. He decides on a whim to make a separate peace with Sparta all by himself, returning with a treaty good for thirty years. Envious of the good deal he has made and of the ...

Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, said to be dedicated to Aristotle's son, Nicomachus, is widely regarded as one of the most important works in the history of Western philosophy. Addressing the question of how men should best live, Aristotle's treatise is not a mere philosophical meditation on the subject, but a practical examination that aims to provide a guide for living out its recommendations.

The one that got away. Every girl has one, right? Mine was a charming, British aristocrat who turned my world upside down one summer. From the moment I first spotted Leo in the distance through my binoculars, I’d been captivated. I certainly never expected to find a man showering outside of the property across the bay in his birthday suit.

The title Politics literally means ‘the things concerning the city’. Here, Aristotle considers the important role that politics plays in the life of the community and its contribution to harmonious and virtuous existence. It is divided into eight books and was a cornerstone in political philosophy for centuries despite certain features - including attitudes towards slaves and women - clearly placing its conclusions and advice within the confines of Athenian society of the fourth century BCE.

Dies ist eine vollständige Lesung der antiken Komödie – wörtlich, mit Witz und satirischer Schärfe vorgetragen. Aristophanes schöpft aus urkomischer Fantasie, indem er zwei Männer zeigt, die mit Vögeln eine eigene Stadt bauen – und so der menschlichen Macht ihre absurden Grenzen aufzeigt. "Die Vögel" entwirft eine utopische Vogelstadt als subversives Gegenmodell zu menschlicher Gier, Politik und Machtwahn – ein lebhaftes, zeitloses Spiel mit Freiheit und Gesellschaftskritik.

Mit "Lysistrate" schuf Aristophanes eine der bekanntesten Komödien des antiken Griechenlands. Das Stück wurde 411 v. Chr. uraufgeführt – mitten im Peloponnesischen Krieg – und ist bis heute ein Paradebeispiel für politische Satire, weiblichen Protest und kluge Komik. In der Handlung verbünden sich die Frauen Athens und Spartas, um ihre Männer zum Frieden zu zwingen – indem sie den Geschlechtsverkehr verweigern. Was folgt, ist eine bissige, humorvolle und überraschend moderne Auseinandersetzung mit Krieg, Macht, Geschlechterrollen und gesellschaftlichem Wandel.

Männer verursachen Krieg und Leid. Ihre Frauen wollen das nicht länger hinnehmen und verweigern sich ihnen, bis sie mit dem Kriegen aufhören - mit Erfolg! Die Komödie des Aristophanes gehört zu den erfolgreichsten klassischen Komödien.
