Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Aristophanes, often hailed as the Father of Comedy, is recognized for his eleven surviving plays that vividly portray ancient Athenian life. Born between 456 and 446 BC, he was likely the son of Philippus of Ægina, raised in Athens. His sharp wit and satirical prowess earned him both admiration and fear among contemporaries, notably influencing the trial of Socrates through his play The Clouds. Criticized by figures like Cleon, he responded with biting satire in works such as The Knights. His legacy remains a vital link to Ancient Greek comedic traditions.
