Thoughts and Questions
Does Lysistrata fit in one of the categories of Greek Comedy? It seem to have elements of all three and is hard to classify.
Don't have many comedies to analyze, which makes it harder to dig deep into these pieces.
There's a common assumption that ancient Greeks and Romans were very proper in their thoughts and behaviors, so it's interesting to see them enjoy such an explicit play with so many innuendos and dick jokes
In Lysistrata, what was the women's motivation for having the men back? Was it for sex, was it for their safety, was it just to get back to a regular life?
Women written and played by men vs women written by and played by women. How would it have been different?
In Lysistrata, why was there not a single appearance by the gods? For a play with such a heavy focus on war, there was no appearance of Ares, Apollo, Athena, or any other god that has connection to war and battle.
All these cursed tablets were found this February. Why do we keep messing with cursed things this year? When will we learn?
