  • Aristophanes' Lysistrata Today
    DIDASKALIA 9 (2012 ) 1 Risk-taking and Transgression: Aristophanes' Lysistrata Today Michael Ewans! The University of Newcastle Robert Phiddian! Flinders University Lysistrata, first performed in 411 BCE, is an Old Comedy about a fictional sex strike by the women of Greece designed to stop the Peloponnesian War. At a dark moment, when defeat appeared to be looming for Athens, the play provided a fantasy of peace. In recent decades it has been the most often revived and taught of Aristophanes’ plays, with 119 performances worldwide in the years 1990–2010, according to the Archive of Performances of Greek and Roman Drama.1 This piece, a collaboration between a translator and theatre researcher (Michael Ewans) and a Greekless literary scholar (Robert Phiddian), recounts a small part of that performance history, a part that sheds light on how this play translates (both literally and culturally) from fifth-century Athens to twenty-first-century Australia. The performances examined are a full-scale production designed to test and perfect Ewans’s new translation of the play at the University of Newcastle (New South Wales) in 2005, and a series of dramatised readings of the play (in the context of a course on comedy and satire) performed at Flinders University in Adelaide between 1998 and 2009, initially with Alan Sommerstein’s translations published by Penguin and subsequently with Ewans’s translation. Lysistrata remains popular not just because it is good, but also because it remains topically significant for its antiwar message and the apparently feminist premise of women taking over public affairs.2 These causes of popularity are potentially a two-edged sword for understanding the play, as relevance can be bought at the price of anachronism and distortion of meaning.

  • LYSISTRATA Animation Transcript
    LYSISTRATA Animation Transcript Timecode Script 00:00:00 Title Plate LYSISTRATA by ARISTOPHANES 00:00:04 To put an end to the Peloponnesian war, Lysistrata persuades women from all over Greece to go on a sex strike until the men agree to make peace. 00:00:15 Lysistrata hatches a plan with the older women to seize control of the Acropolis, where the city treasury is kept. 00:00:22 The men attempt to smoke the women out of the Acropolis but the women extinguish the fires and triumphantly drench the men. 00:00:31 When a magistrate, a proboulos, arrives to retrieve funds for the war Lysistrata berates him about the losses that the women have been forced to bear. 00:00:38 Text Card Women have to take on more than twice your burden. Firstly it’s us giving birth to children, then we send them off as soldiers. 00:00:49 The women dress the magistrate up in their clothes, and send him away humiliated. 00:00:57 As the strike continues the sex-starved men of Greece become increasingly desperate. 00:01:04 A Spartan Herald approaches the Acropolis and finds the magistrate outside. He explains the desperate situation of his countrymen and they both agree that a treaty is required. 00:01:18 Delegations from Athens and Sparta meet to discuss the treaty. Lysistrata appears with her naked handmaid, Peace. The men’s eyes are fixated on Peace as Lysistrata chastises them for treating each other so badly and reminds them that they previously helped one another.

  • Lysistrata: the Ritual Logic of the Sex-Strike
    Lysistrata: the Ritual Logic of the Sex-strike by Camilla Power (Lecturer in Anthropology, University of East London) Aristophanes, born about 450BC, was at the height of his powers during the Peloponnesian War between Athens and Sparta. His three comedies of sexual subversion — Λυσιστρατη (Lysistrata), Θεσµoφoριαζoυσαι (Thesmophoriazusai) and ’Εκκλησιαζoυσαι (Ekklesiazusai) — are the remaining examples of what may have been a traditional ‘feminist’ or gynocratic theme in Old Athenian Comedy. In this paper I intend to show, with particular reference to Lysistrata, that there is a ritual logic inherent in the structure of these plays, and in the myths, rites and cults to which they allude. Such logic, I would suggest, is derived from a very ancient template, the influence of which persisted in Greek women's ritual culture down to Aristophanes' time. The theme – Γυvαικoκρατια The idea of women performing roles of men, i.e. taking part in the business of the πoλις (polis) as opposed to that of the ’oικoς (oikos), the sphere of domestic management, seems to have been inherently comic to the Greek citizen of Aristophanes' Athens. The only public sphere of activity open to women was ritual and sacerdotal. That the male audience's laughter would have been, to an extent, a nervous release, chanelling anxieties about male status, can be deduced from the traditional theme of γυvαικoκρατια — rule of women — in Greek myth and art. We have, for example, the battles fought with the Amazons at the heart of Athens celebrated in the Parthenon friezes — in na, a goddess herself Amazon at heart; the myths of theεthe temple of Ath Danaids, and of the Lemnian women, archetypal figures of female rebellion, indeed of sex-strike.

  • Greek Drama As Feminist Window on American Identity 1900-1925
    Pre-print version of article forthcoming in K. Bosher, F. Macintosh, J. McConnell and Patrice Rankine (eds. 2014) The Oxford Handbook to Greek Drama in the Americas The Migrant Muse: Greek Drama as Feminist Window on American Identity 1900-1925 Edith Hall (KCL) The Quest for a New Muse Just before the academic rediscovery of ancient Greek drama in performance in the 1880s, Walt Whitman appealed for a new form of poetry to replace worn-out classicism, in ‘Song of the exposition’ (1871): Come, Muse, migrate from Greece and Ionia; Cross out, please, those immensely overpaid accounts. That matter of Troy, and Achilles’ wrath, and Eneas’, Odysseus’ wanderings; Place ‘Removed’ and ‘To Let’ on the rocks of your snowy Parnassus... For know a better, fresher, busier sphere – a wide, untried domain, awaits, demands you. But what, precisely, would be the nature of the Muse’s fresher, busier, untried North American domain? If she was to migrate from Greece and Ionia, how was she to adapt herself to a new destination far from her original home? This chapter looks at some ways in which American Modernist feminists used the Muse of Greek drama in the reconfiguration of American identity. Fifty years later, on July 7th 1921, Calvin Coolidge, Vice-President of the USA, addressed the American Classical League at UP in Philadelphia. Despite the tumultuous history 1 Pre-print version of article forthcoming in K. Bosher, F. Macintosh, J.

Examining Committee Dr. John A. Hawkins, Drama Dr. Rosalind Kerr, Drama Dr. Selina Stewart, History and Classics Abstract Aristophanes’ comedy Lysistrata has been a favorite choice for anti-war activists since its first production in Athens in 411 B.C.E. as a response to the Peloponnesian War. In 2003, Lysistrata was chosen for the Lysistrata Project, a global theatrical protest against the United States’ planned invasion of Iraq. The Project was created in New York City but grew to involve participants from 59 countries. In this thesis, I examine Lysistrata in its original context of the Peloponnesian War, then I move on to the Lysistrata Project in the context of American democracy and modern Greece.

  • Seventeen Early Peace Psychologists
    Seventeen Early Peace Psychologists By Floyd Rudmin Rudmin, Floyd (1991). Seventeen Early Peace Psychologists. In Journal of Humanistic Psychology, Vol. 31, No. 2, Spring, pp. 12-43, 1991 Sage Publications, Inc. Floyd Webster Rudmin is a boundary crosser. In many societies (e.g., the Inuit), boundary crossers are obliged to try to interpret and intercede for those on either side of the boundary. Dr. Rudmin completed a B.A. in philosophy at Bowdoin College in Maine, an M. A. in audiology at SUNY Buffalo, and a Ph.D. in social psychology at Queen University in Ontario. He has lived and worked in the United States, the Philippines, Japan, and since 1978 in Canada. His spouse, Toyoko, is Japanese. Their children are schooled in French. The primary focus of Dr. Rudmin research is the psychology of ownership and possession. He is currently an assistant professor in Queen Faculty of Law and School of Business. History of psychology is his pleasure. Peace is his passion. Summary Peace psychology has a history that is both long and prominent. However, that fact is little known and little appreciated, even among contemporary peace-activist psychologists. This article presents 17 brief biographies of psychologists who are part of this important heritage: Pythagoras, Jeremy Bentham, Franz Brentano, William James, August Forel, Ivan Pavlov, Sigmund Freud, James McKeen Cattell, Mary Whiton Calkins, Alexander Chamberlain, Alfred Adler, William McDougall, Edward Tolman, Gordon Allport, Gustav Ichheiser, Margaret Mead, and Charles Osgood. It is important that more recognition and appreciation be given to the long and prominent history of psychology in peace research and peace activism.

  • LYSISTRATA by LAURA FACCIPONTI
    A TEACHER’S GUIDE TO THE SIGNET CLASSIC EDITION OF ARISTOPHANES’S LYSISTRATA By LAURA FACCIPONTI SERIES EDITORS: W. GEIGER ELLIS, ED.D., UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA, EMERITUS and ARTHEA J. S. REED, PH.D., UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA, RETIRED A Teacher’s Guide to the Signet Classic Edition of Aristophanes’s Lysistrata 2 INTRODUCTION ADULT THEMES Classic Greek comedies are frequently bawdy, using physical humor, puns, and sexually explicit language. Lysistrata, due to its subject matter, is one of the most sexually focused comedies of its time. Therefore, educators should be aware that the play and this study guide contain adult themes and language. The play refers to various men exposing erections (traditionally men wore leather phalluses for this effect), and the dialogue exchanged between characters has numerous puns on the men’s physical condition. The play also contains scenes with nudity, sexual interactions, and seduction. Although the play has significant historic and literary value, it should be taught only to mature high school, junior college, and college/university students. High school teachers should follow all the steps prescribed by their school for approval of controversial subjects. Students and parents, when appropriate, should be aware of the sexually explicit nature of the play prior to reading or viewing. Alternative selections should be available. PLOT SYNOPSIS Simply stated, the plot of Lysistrata depicts Athenian women who are fed up with the Peloponnesian War, so they barricade themselves in the Akropolis. They orchestrate a sex strike in order to force their husbands to vote for peace with Sparta. The play’s action occurs on a street in Athens in front of a gate to the Akropolis, which looms in the background.
