"There is no beast, no rush of fire, like woman so untamed. She calmly goes her way where even panthers would be shamed." ― Aristophanes, Lysistrata Lysistrata is an ancient Greek comedy by Aristophanes. It tells the story of the extraordinary mission of women to end a three-decade conflict- the Peloponnesian War. Lysistrata, the title character, leads the women of the warring Greek city-states in a sex strike in hopes to persuade their husbands to stop the fighting. The older women of Athens seized control of Acropolis and the state treasury in it for, without money, men cannot fund their war. Old men arrived with woods and burning coals. They plan to smoke the women out of the Acropolis but a group of old women throws water at them, putting out their fires. A man who is desperate for sex appears and pleads. His wife teases and leads him on but leaves him hanging to torture him further. Several other men tried to get through the women but none succeeded Will this method prove to be effective in ending a war? Add to cart and get your copy now!
