Summary

A brand-new translation of the world’s greatest satirist.

With a signature style that is at once bawdy and delicate, as well as a fearless penchant for lampooning the rich and powerful, Aristophanes remains arguably the finest satirist of all time. Collected here are all 11 of his surviving plays—newly translated by the distinguished poet and translator Paul Roche.
