«Las nubes, Lisístrata y Dinero» is the classical theater volume by Aristophanes, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (223 pages, in Spanish).
It brings together three comedies by Aristophanes written during the Peloponnesian War, examples of his satire against Athenian public life: the author attacks demagogues, denounces the moral crisis and points to the corruptors of youth, while still seeking the audience's laughter with his verbal imagination.
Edition with introduction, translation and notes by Elsa García Novo. Volume 1239 of the El libro de bolsillo collection, Classics section, from Alianza Editorial.
For readers of classical Greek theater and those interested in the political and social satire of Antiquity.
Aristophanes was an Ancient Greek comic playwright from Athens. He wrote forty plays, of which eleven survive virtually complete. The majority of his surviving plays belong to the genre of comic drama known as Old Comedy and are considered its most valuable examples. Aristophanes's plays were performed at the religious festivals of Athens, mostly the City Dionysia and the Lenaia, and several of them won the first prize in their respective competitions.
