Excerpt from The Knights of Aristophanes If the American Editor of this little volume (which is sent forth as a test of the character of American learning) deemed it either expedient or necessary to expatiate upon the merits of an author so celebrated and gifted as Aristophanes, he might extend his eulogia beyond the patient perusal of the modems. The eloquent and erudite preliminary discourse by the accomplished translator, however, anticipates the remarks which otherwise would be expanded. No satirist, ancient or modern, ever enjoyed the deserved reputation of Aristophanes, and no one ever depicted, in colors so vivid and unfading, the essential and peculiar charac teristics of democracy. As he lived under the dominion of the Universal People, he thoroughly understood the qualities of the democrats whom he has ridiculed and immortalized; and he never shrunk, when occasion demanded, from the exposure of ﬂagrant abuses. Therefore, we commend, earnestly commend the perusal of this volume to our literary countrymen: and if the reception of this limited edition of a single comedy shall justify the editor in the more enlarged republication of all the works of Aristophanes, he will rejoice in the opportunity, thus afforded, of instructing and enlightening his countrymen.

Excerpt from Aristophanes: The Acharnians, And, the Knights The heroes return, one wounded, the other tipsy; Dicmo polis mocks Lamachus who is to be taken off to the surgeon, while he himself having won the wine-skin (as the best tippler) goes off with the chorus in jovial procession to claim his prize.

Excerpt from Aristophanes: I. The Acharnians, II. The Knights, III. The Clouds The next five-and-thirty lines (referring to the probably interpolated matter in The Wasps') contain much that had been better omitted; and the English on the right hand page is in many places necessarily a substitute for rather than a translation of the original text.

The Knights: Large Print By Aristophanes In the first play he produced on his own behalf, Aristophanes launched a violent attack on Cleon, the leading politician of the day, on the whole style of leadership that he represented and on a system which seemed to guarantee that a bad leader could be displaced by a worse.

The Knights Aristophanes Knights by Aristophanes (c. 446 to c. 386 BC ), the greatest writer of Old Comedy, is a bawdy, incisive, and evocative satire on Athenian political life during the Peloponnesian War. The play is a fierce and sustained attack on one of the most popular politicians of the day, the pro-war demagogue Cleon, who had prosecuted Aristophanes for one of his earlier works. Beyond that, Knights is a scathing indictment of corrupt politicians in general (hence, very modern in its insights). In the play, two slaves decide to prepare a sausage seller, an uneducated ex-prostitute, for political life, on the ground that he already has all the necessary qualifications for successful leadership in democratic Athens. Their efforts culminate in a challenge to the most prominent leader of the polis and the eventual success of the sausage seller in taking over control of the city. Knights won first prize in the drama festival when it was first produced in 424 BC.Ian Johnston s new translation captures the comic energy and the moral seriousness of this famous play. This text will be particularly useful for those who wish to stage readings or full productions of the play. The translation provides notes to assist the reader with the many references to Aristophanes contemporaries.
