This book is a translation of Aristophanes' play 'The Frogs' by W. J. Hickie, which tells the story of the god Dionysus and his quest to find a great poet to restore the glory of Athens. The play is a satirical commentary on the state of Greek poetry at the time, and a celebration of the power of literature to effect social change. The book is a valuable contribution to the study of Greek drama, and a reminder of the importance of literature in shaping our understanding of the world around us.
