Description: Express Shipping Worldwide is Free The Grecian Temptress Lysistrata by AristophanesThe Humorous Classic of Wives on StrikeIllustrations by Norman Lindsay - five full page prints with no text on the reverse, and 14 further illustrationsPublished by Three Sirens Press, New York, some time around 1930 as there is no date and may well be a first editionWith a foreword by Jack Lindsay.This volume is in the larger format.Lysistrata is one of the world's great masterpieces of dramatic humour. Written more than 2,300 years ago it is no dry as dust relic but a living, breathing, frolicsome, fun loving, laughter provoking book as relevant to the times today as it was 2,300 years ago.Although the basic idea is serious, very serious - the stopping of wars, Aristophanes took the most amusing incidents to underline points of morale. Imagine the consternation of the men of Greece when the women, under the leadership of Lysistrata, band together and agree to withhold themselves from all men until wars cease.The natural actions and reactions of both men and women make these lusty pages Aristophanes' brightest, most tantalising rib-tickling comedies.In 114 pages, in hardcover with quarter faux purple leather and ochre cloth, with titles embossed to the front cover, and to the spine. The top edges are gilt. There is very light shelfwear. There are no previous owners' names or inscriptions. There is no sunning. There is no foxing.
