As this volume shows, the earlier scholarship on politics in (or "and") Aristophanes, which tended to focus on determining Aristophanes' "actual" political views, has by now given way to approaches far more sensitive to how comic literary texts work and more attentive to the complexities of Athenian political structures and social dynamics. All the studies in this volume grapple to varying degrees with such methodological tensions, and show, that the richer and more diverse our political readings of Aristophanes can become, the less stable and consistent, as befits a comic work, they appear to be"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 00 $a Aristophanes $x Criticism and interpretation. 650 0 $a Greek drama (Comedy) $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Politics in literature. 650 0 $a Politics and literature $z Athens. $z Athens. 700 1 $a Rosen, Ralph Mark, $e editor. 700 1 $a Foley, Helene P., $d 1942- $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Aristophanes and politics $d Leiden ; Boston : Brill, 2020. $z 9789004424463 $w (DLC) 2020002377 830 0 $a Columbia studies in the classical tradition ; $v vol. 45. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117032253.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230706014225.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B5FCB998D7AA11EAACEF483997128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
