The narrative follows Chremylus, a poor farmer seeking wealth by enlisting the help of Plutus, the god of riches, who is discovered to be blind. Chremylus takes him to Asclepius to restore his sight, leading to a redistribution of wealth that upends the social order in Athens. The play critiques the corrupt dynamics of wealth and power, highlighting the struggles between the elite and the oppressed. This edition features a translation by William James Hickie and aims to preserve this significant work of ancient comedy for modern readers.
