Four Plays

The plays cleverly critique society and politics, but I wonder how much of that humor and critique still feels relevant now. Do the themes translate across centuries?

Each play tackles different themes and tones, from comedy to satire to myth. I'm curious whether these were selected for their popularity or their thematic diversity.

Some jokes felt timeless, but others seemed very rooted in Athenian society. Did the humor land differently for modern readers, or is it still just as funny?
