A very good guide for Aristophanean research
It's a very good book that psychoanalyze the dramatis personae of the Aristophanes' comedies and give many informations about each play.
The madness of war
While the introduction, conclusion and first essay is apparently anchored in an argument between philosophy and poetry, the further Strauss leaves "Clouds" behind, the more we see through his close reading of the plays, in a way we never do from the younger Plato, the cultural disintegration of Athens under the assault of the war.
How the other half lives
This book follows the typical Strauss pattern: In the first few pages he makes a blanket statement , then follows it up will a torturous and nuanced analysis of the thinker's ideas until you begin to wonder: In what way is Aristophanes a reactionary or Machiavelli, evil.
Aristophanes: the Neglected Political Philosopher
In this book Leo Strauss takes Aristophanes depiction of Socrates as a serious political attack.
