Aristophanes: Frogs
Aristophanes
Synopsis "Aristophanes: Frogs"
Aristophanes' sophisticated comedy on the style and role of the plays of the modern Euripides vis a vis the traditional Aeschylus, contains his most brilliant parodies. These are asset in the fantastic and farcical context of Dionysus, disguised as Herakles, with his memorably cheeky slave Xanthias, descending into Hades to resurrect Euripides but returning instead with Aeschylus. Stanford s edition of Frogs includes introduction, Greek text and commentary. It contains a substantial introduction on the play's background, and interpretation. The commentary is detailed on matters of language, metre and content, and a bibliography of further reading is provided.
