SUMMARY:Book Club: "Lysistrata" by Aristophanes
DESCRIPTION:This conversation is presented by the UCLA SNF Center for the Study of Hellenic Culture  and the Consulate General of Greece in Los Angeles \nSaturday\, November 9\, 2024 \n10 a.m. Los Angeles / 8 p.m. Greece \nVia Zoom \nClick Here to RSVP \nLed by Professor Sharon Gerstel\, Director of the UCLA SNF Center for the Study of Hellenic Culture\, and the Honorable Christina Valassopoulou\, Consul General of Greece in Los Angeles\, this academic year’s book club will feature Greek books in translation. For future book selections and meeting dates\, click here.  \nThe discussion will be held in English. \nFrom the publisher: Aristophanes’ play\, Lysistrata\, takes place toward the end of the Peloponnesian War and centers on the lives of the soldiers’ wives. One woman\, Lysistrata\, under the impression that a man’s libido is ultimately his driving force in life\, comes up with an interesting peace solution: to deny their husbands sexual relations until they can settle on a peace agreement that will end the war. However\, Lysistrata’s strategy effectively creates even more war than before as the sexes begin to feud with each other. Aristophanes’ play is both comic and poignant as it reveals the relationship between men and women in classical Athens society. \nThis program is held under the auspices of the Consulate General of Greece in Los Angeles and is made possible thanks to the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF). \nLinks to purchase book: \nAmazon (Translated by The Athenian Society): https://www.amazon.com/Lysistrata-Translated-Annotations-Athenian-Society \nBarnes and Noble (Translated by Jefferey Henderson): https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/aristophanes-aristophanes/1102172367?ean=9780941051026&aug=1
