Lysistrata - die Heeresauflöserin - die die Frauen von Athen und Sparta mobilisierte, den Krieg der Männer zu beenden. Diese Vorlage aus dem antiken Griechenland wird in ihrer Anwendbarkeit in heutigen Gegebenheiten durchgespielt, in Frage gestellt und einer neuen Zeit überantwortet, oder die Zeit löst sich auf und die Thematik wird durchsichtig... «Erst machen wir Liebe, und was dabei heraus kommt, geht nachher in den Krieg - die Söhne jedenfalls, rechtzeitig erzogen - und die Töchter jubeln ihnen zu, den Helden des Blutvergiessens. So nährt die Liebe den Krieg - und der Krieg macht am Ende so müde, dass wir uns wieder nach der Liebe sehnen. Und das Ganze beginnt von vorn. Frisches Fleisch, frisches Blut - als müsste die ganze Erde damit getränkt werden.»
In the mid-1930s, some beautiful, high-quality books were published by a company called Limited Editions Club, which, according to Antiques Roadshow appraiser Ken Sanders, was “famous for re-issuing classics of literature and commissioning contemporary living artists to illustrate 1500-copy signed limited editions.” One of those books—the 1934 Pablo Picasso-illustrated edition of Aristophanes' Lysistrata—is, next to Henri Matisse’s 1935 edition of Joyce’s Ulysses, one of “the most sought after and desirable limited editions on the market today.” The book’s rarity, of course, renders it more valuable on the market than a mass-produced object, but whether it was worth $5,000 or $50, I think I’d hold onto my copy if I had one (here’s one for $12,000 if you’re buying).
