Winner of the Baileys' Women's Prize for Fiction 2016. ![]() ![]() Henderson's text and apparatus criticus is supplemented by a full Introduction giving details of the background to the play, its content, staging, philological interest, the textual transmission, and by a detailed Commentary. In particular, it is the first to report all the manuscripts, papyri, and testimonial sources of the text, offering a new account of its history and a detailed review of the transmission of the Aristophanic corpus as a whole. The text is brought fully up to date with the advances made in Aristophanic scholarship over the past sixty years. Henderson's standard edition of Aristophanes' play provides much new evidence for those working on anthropological and sociological aspects of Athens, as well as those working in traditional philological fields. In addition to its many topical references to social life, religion, and politics in classical Athens, the Lysistrata is one of our best sources for the life of women in antiquity: unlike epic, tragedy, and oratory, Attic comedy draws its characters and plots from everyday life and provides a unique glimpse into the situation of everyday Athenians.

Other customers are horrified and uncomfortable, Lori asks Phil what on EARTH is that noise, and the store manager tries to remove mother and son from the store. There are some VERY strange goings-on at Walmart on a normal day, and what Phil is about to walk into is anything but normal!Ĭhocolate in hand, Lori on the phone, and headed for checkout, Phil encounters what appears to be a really run-down, exhausted mother of a young tow-headed boy – the young lad strangely dressed in an almost Amish-style of clothing, and SHRIEKING… no, BELLOWING his lungs out over some candy he wants. ![]() Now, most of us have either seen the book The People of Walmart or had some first-hand experience with folks similar to the folks pictured in the aforesaid book so Phil going to Wally World should have given the reader pause right away.
