Aristophanes: Ecclesiazusae

ISBN: 9780856687082 出版年：1998 页码：265 Sommerstein, Alan H Liverpool University Press

Ecclesiazusae, probably produced in 391 BC, is at once a typically Aristophanic fantasy of gender inversion, obscenity and farce, the earliest surviving work in the western Utopian tradition, and the source of a blueprint for a communist society on which Plato may well have drawn in his Republic.
