| Summary | "Comedias, tomo 2 de 3: Las Avispas, la Paz, las Aves, Lisístrata" by Aristophanes is a collection of comedic plays written in the 5th century BC. This work showcases the author's sharp satirical critique of Athenian society during a turbulent period, particularly regarding the administration of justice and the people's obsession with litigation. The principal characters include Filocleón, a passionate and somewhat deranged judge, and his son Bdelicleón, who attempts to cure his father's mania for judgment and restore sanity to their household. The opening of "Las Avispas" sets the stage for the chaotic world of Athenian courts, where corrupt and inefficient systems abound, leading citizens like Filocleón to become increasingly irrational about their roles as judges. Bdelicleón's efforts to keep his father confined at home to prevent him from attending court spirals into a series of humorous attempts at escape, reflecting the absurdity of their reality. As the narrative unfolds, we see characters in comedic interactions, debates concerning legal practices, and the ultimately absurd nature of a society fixated on law and order, all delivered through Aristophanes' signature wit and humor.
