"In the colloquial sense or the classical sense? I imagine that most people these days, particularly here, might view Lysistrata as a tragedy, particularly given their inability to turn it into a lesbian orgy (the orgê of the women went elsewhere). I'd like to know more about the tragedy put on after the battle of Marathon, recounted in (I think) Herodotus, which was promptly banned for being far too upsetting." Well, happy to leave it open to interpretation. Re Lysistrata, I wonder how would the principal of withholding favours as a mean of peace keeping would go down these days and how long it would last And yes it was Herodotus. | |||

"I prefer comedy. I'd much rather see Much Ado About Nothing over say The Duchess of Malfi. Unrelenting misery and death doesn't do it for me. But if they made a version with Keanu Reeves I could possibly be persuaded otherwise " But they do say that a good cry makes you feel better or that just a myth? | |||

"I think very little comedy ages or travels that well where great tragedy is universal and timeless. " I must say I tend to agree | |||
