Download or read book The Comedies of Aristophanes Vol 2 written by Aristophanes Aristophanes and published by . This book was released on 2017-07-18 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Comedies of Aristophanes, Vol. 2: The Clouds; The WaspsTwo other of the extant Comedies, the Peace and the Birds, were, we know, brought out in subsequent years at the Great Dionysia. In neither case did Aristophanes obtain the prize; but so far as our information extends, this is the only contest in which he was placed last of the three competitors.But the Clouds so exhibited and defeated was not in all respects precisely identical with the existing Play. Indignant at what he considered the unmerited slur cast upon his most brilliant achievement, Aristophanes carefully revised the entire Comedy. Some passages he rewrote, and these are now amongst its most notable features. It is this revised edition which we have in our hands.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Aristophanes   the Cloak of Comedy

Download or read book Aristophanes the Cloak of Comedy written by Mario Telò and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2016-04-18 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Greek playwright Aristophanes (active 427–386 BCE) is often portrayed as the poet who brought stability, discipline, and sophistication to the rowdy theatrical genre of Old Comedy. In this groundbreaking book, situated within the affective turn in the humanities, Mario Telò explores a vital yet understudied question: how did this view of Aristophanes arise, and why did his popularity eventually eclipse that of his rivals? Telò boldly traces Aristophanes’s rise, ironically, to the defeat of his play Clouds at the Great Dionysia of 423 BCE. Close readings of his revised Clouds and other works, such as Wasps, uncover references to the earlier Clouds, presented by Aristophanes as his failed attempt to heal the audience, who are reflected in the plays as a kind of dysfunctional father. In this proto-canonical narrative of failure, grounded in the distinctive feelings of different comic modes, Aristophanic comedy becomes cast as a prestigious object, a soft, protective cloak meant to shield viewers from the debilitating effects of competitors’ comedies and restore a sense of paternal responsibility and authority. Associations between afflicted fathers and healing sons, between audience and poet, are shown to be at the center of the discourse that has shaped Aristophanes’s canonical dominance ever since.

Book excerpt: The Clouds is a Greek comedy play written by the playwright Aristophanes. A lampooning of intellectual fashions in classical Athens, it can be considered the world's first extant "comedy of ideas" and is considered by literary critics to be among the finest examples of the genre. The play also, however, remains notorious for its caricature of Socrates and is mentioned in Plato's Apology as a contributor to the philosopher's trial and execution.
