Comedias, tomo 1 de 3 : Los Acarnienses, los Caballeros, las Nubes

A freshly edited volume brings the lively world of Aristophanes to modern ears. The translator has updated spelling and standardized Greek names while preserving the original wit, and the footnotes have been gathered at the back for easy reference. Each play opens with a concise prologue that sets the stage for the bawdy, imaginative humor that defined ancient Greek comedy.

Beyond the performances, the book includes a brief essay on the history of Greek theatre in Spain, highlighting the challenges of translating these satirical works and the lasting impact of Aristophanes’ blend of fantasy and social critique. Listeners will appreciate both the timeless jokes and the scholarly care that makes these classic comedies accessible today.
