[[Thesmophoriazusae]] (Greek: [[Θεσμοφοριάζουσαι]]; Thesmophoriazousai, meaning Women Celebrating the Festival of the [[Thesmophoria]]), or Women at the Thesmophoria (sometimes also called The Poet and the Women), is one of eleven surviving plays by Aristophanes. It was first produced in 411 BC, probably at the City Dionysia. The play's focuses include the subversive role of women in a male-dominated society; the vanity of contemporary poets, such as the tragic playwrights Euripides and Agathon; and the shameless, enterprising vulgarity of an ordinary Athenian, as represented in this play by the protagonist, Mnesilochus. The work is also notable for Aristophanes' free adaptation of key structural elements of Old Comedy and for the absence of the anti-populist and anti-war comments that pepper his earlier work. It was produced in the same year as Lysistrata, another play with sexual themes. | |wketx=[[Thesmophoriazusae]] (Greek: [[Θεσμοφοριάζουσαι]]; Thesmophoriazousai, meaning Women Celebrating the Festival of the [[Thesmophoria]]), or Women at the Thesmophoria (sometimes also called The Poet and the Women), is one of eleven surviving plays by Aristophanes.
