Ενδιαφερον το ότι απορούν οι σχολιαστές πως γίνεται ο Αριστοφάνης να ήξερε την ουσία της πλατωνικης πολιτείας και να την διακωμωδουσε δέκα χρόνια πριν κυκλοφορήσει.

Un clásico con el que me he llevado una grata sorpresa. Es un libro corto y divertido, que trata un tema interesante. Es un libro que choca por el liberalismo que desprenden sus palabras y que logra hacerte sonreír con sus bromas, sobre todo las de carácter sexual. Es cierto que la trama no es compleja y que busca la risa fácil, pero es que el verdadero valor de la obra recae en que permite que nos demos cuenta de que no somos tan modernos como creíamos.

Ecclesiazusae (A Parliament of Women) by Aristophanes is a fanciful depiction of a world turned upside down. In it the women of Athens assume control of the government.

It begins with Praxagora who emerges from her house before daybreak. She is wearing a false beard and men's clothing. She joins other women and together, posing as men, they take over governance and quickly instate a series of radical reforms. She leads a campaign to ban private wealth and enforce sexual equity even for the old and unattractive. They require equal pay for men and women. There are to be no more lawsuits. People are to reside in common living areas. The courthouse and porticos become common dining halls. Since individual ownership is non-existent, there is no private wealth. Instead, there is a common stock of necessities for everybody. Slavery still exists but there is common ownership. Slaves still perform all the necessary work.

The result? Here is hilarious chaos, a battle of the sexes with an assortment of unintended consequences. There is a wealth of Aristophanes’ characteristic political satire, bawdy humor, and pointed irony.

La comedia que pone el mundo del revés, el qué-pasaría-sí, en clave de parodia, pues el comportamiento de la mujer no es más que el del imaginario masculino de la época.
¿La obra es transgresora o tremendamente conservadora? Apunta a lo segundo
¿El poder transformador de lo escatológico? ¿Cómo respondería la sociedad actual a ello, con o sin un contraste dramático-serio?
¿La puesta en escena acentuaba la problemática social de las mujeres, o acentuaba la parodia de ellas? Parece ir más enfocado a lo segundo, por desgracia
¿Es la primera propuesta práctica de comunismo? Investigar
Parece que el objetivo principal de Aristófanes es mostrar la propensión de las ciudades a la democracia, y a su posterior degeneración, y cómo personas concretas sacan provecho individual de problemáticas colectivas (p.e. sicofanta: denunciante profesional)

Κάθε φορά που διαβάζω Αριστοφάνη αναρωτιέμαι πώς γίνεται αυτός ο άνθρωπος να είναι τόσο επίκαιρος! 2500 χρόνια πριν αλλά λες και γράφτηκε χθες.

Such a funny play! This play -- in which women (led by Praxagora) pretend to be men, sneak into the Assembly, and vote to hand control of Athens over to women -- really advances Aristophanes in my eyes as more and more of a social critic. The way that the women want to reform Athens into a state in which everything is held in common and in which there are no more households, families, or marriages (remarkably similar to Plato's suggestions in the middle of the *Republic*) is so interesting. My only criticism, really, is that it treads on the same territory as *Lysistrata* when it comes to covering "war between the genders," especially Aristophanes' focus on sexual dynamics. I take it that this is more of a motif that Aristophanes was interested in, rather than some boring repetition, but it would have been nice to see the play branch out a bit after the premise is basically fully unpacked half-way through.

"Como sempre, os políticos tratavam da salvação da pátria: apresentavam projetos de efetivação de interinos com duas horas de exercício da função, de concessão de taxas de insalubridade ao pessoal que vai à praia aos domingos e fica lá depois do meio-dia, de criação de mil cargos de assistentes sexuais para os deputados, de aumento de subsídios, de férias de 300 dias por ano, etc. De repente levantou-se um, muito branco, subiu à tribuna e começou a falar com uma voz meio esganiçada, dizendo que o governo devia ser entregue à mulheres. Toda a turma brancos gritava e dizia que o orador tinha razão. O resto do pessoal discutia apaixonadamente os projetos de efetivação, insalubridade, criação de cargos, etc."

Caricato como, no fim, o problema não é o homem, também não é a mulher: não é uma questão de sexo, mas de caráter humano.
