The Comedies of Plutus and The Frogs is a book by Aristophanes, a Greek playwright, that was originally written in Greek. This book is a literal translation of these two comedies into English prose, allowing readers who do not speak Greek to enjoy the humor and wit of Aristophanes' work. Plutus is a comedy about wealth and the corrupting influence it can have on people, while The Frogs is a satire of the literary world and the competition between poets. Both plays are known for their sharp commentary on society and politics, and their timeless relevance makes them still enjoyable to read today. This edition of the book was published in 1822.With Notes From The Scholia And Other Commentaries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
