Aristophanes: Wasps

ISBN: 9780856682131 出版年：1983 页码：281 Sommerstein, Alan H Liverpool University Press

Wasps was first produced at the Lenaea festival of 422 BC. The play is at once a political satire and also, like Clouds and the lost Banqueters , a comedy on the theme of the conflict of generations. The play follows the efforts of a mischievous and mercurial old man to escape the control of a stern and heavy son.
