It remains more or less faithful to the original Greek, avoiding radical changes that would make the \u003ci\u003eClouds\u003c\/i\u003e conform to linguistic \"fads\" at the very end of the twentieth century. The book includes an informative introduction about the author and the play, a chronological chart of the fifth century B.C., a selective bibliography for further reading and various notes that explain to the reader a diversity of religious, cultural, political and social beliefs and practices of the ancient peoples of Athens. This book also highlights Aristophanes' comic genius and emphasizes the diversity of themes and variety of subjects which the \u003ci\u003eClouds\u003c\/i\u003e portrays as conceived by Aristophanes' unsurpassed comic imagination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMarie Marianetti\u003c\/b\u003e is Assistant Professor of Classics and History at Lehman College, The City University of New York.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 120\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.28 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 19, 1996\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50453528412397,"sku":"9780761805885","price":134.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.webster.direct\/en-ca\/products\/aristophanes-the-clouds-an-annotated-translation-paperback","provider":"Webster.Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
