Sommario/riassunto

Aristophanes' Lysistrata is one of the greatest political comedies of world literature. First presented in Athens in 411 BCE, during the war between Athens and Sparta, it can be considered a plea for peace. Since their husbands are not able to conclude peace, Athenian and Spartan women, guided by Lysistrata, force it by organizing a sex strike. The



combination of serious topics with lascivious comic scenes is characteristic of this comedy.

Die Lysistrate des Aristophanes gehört zu den großen politischen Komödien der Weltliteratur. Aufgeführt wurde sie in Athen 411 v. Chr. an einem Dionysosfest während des Peloponnesischen Krieges zwischen Athen und Sparta als ein Plädoyer für den Frieden. Da die Männer friedensunfähig sind, übernehmen die Frauen in einer revolutionären Aktion unter Führung der Lysistrate die Initiative zum Frieden, denn auch Frauen haben "Verstand" und "Einsicht". Indem die alten Frauen den Männern die Kontrolle über die Staats- und Kriegskasse nehmen und die jungen Frauen zusammen mit den Spartanerinnen in einen Liebesstreik treten, erzwingen sie gemeinsam im Spiel den Frieden und damit die Rettung Griechenlands. Das Ineinander von ernstem Thema und lasziver komischer Handlung ist ein konstitutives Merkmal der attischen Komödie der Klassik, das in der dionysischen Festkultur seine Wurzeln hat. Es hat die Rezeption der Lysistrate bis weit ins 20. Jh. massiv behindert und ist erst in der Moderne als Element einer karnevalesken Komik anerkannt worden. Die Edition des Stückes mit präziser Übersetzung und einem differenzierten Kommentar soll helfen, der Komödie ihren Platz im kulturellen Gedächtnis der Gegenwart zu sichern.

Sommario/riassunto

How did the city-state of Athens defeat the invaders from Persia, the first world empire, on the plain of Marathon in 490 BCE? Clever scholars skeptical of our earliest surviving source, Herodotus, have produced one ingenious theory after another. In this stimulating new book, bound to provoke controversy, Peter Krentz argues that Herodotus was right after all. Beginning his analysis with the Athenians' first formal contact with the Persians in 507 BCE, Krentz weaves together ancient evidence with travelers' descriptions, archaeological discoveries, geological surveys, and the experiences of modern reenactors and soldiers to tell his story.Krentz argues that before Marathon the Athenian army fought in a much less organized way than the standard view of the hoplite phalanx suggests: as an irregularly armed mob rather than a disciplined formation of identically equipped infantry. At Marathon the Athenians equipped all their fighters, including archers and horsemen, as hoplites for the first time. Because their equipment weighed only half as much as is usually thought, the Athenians and their Plataean allies could charge almost a mile at a run, as Herodotus says they did. Krentz improves on this account in Herodotus by showing why the Athenians wanted to do such a risky thing.
