ISBN: 9781480296497 / Angielski / Miękka / 106 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Lysistrata (or "Army-disbander") is one of the few surviving plays written by Aristophanes.

The play is notable for being an early expose of sexual relations in a male-dominated society. The dramatic structure represents a shift away from...
