Kenneth S Rothwell, Jr.
A late eighteenth-century engraving is the only surviving record of a vase painting that shows a very odd scene, possibly reflecting a fifth- or fourth-century B.C. comedy.

Nature, Culture And The Origins Of Greek Comedy. A Study Of Animal Choruses, Kenneth Rothwell

Kenneth S Rothwell, Jr.
I now see that a title like "Sex, Women, and Politics in Aristophanes' Ecclesiazusae" would have been more sensational--and also more accurate.

Also discussed are rhetoric and the response to democracy in this late play of Aristophanes.
