Plot

I realize how boring my titles are for my blogs, but that is very simple to explain, i am not very original, and i dont want to have to put in that much effort for a title that most people wont get any way, me included. Anyways, the plot development in this play is very smooth, we see the introduction, the rising action of the play, The climax, what a double ontondra for this play( i realize how poorly i spelled that, but i dont care, its the meaning behind the words, not their appearance), the falling action of the play, and the conclusion. It flows very similarly to a play spanning many acts, and the theatrical experience of the play is not deterred by the plot, but enhanced. My only criticism of this is that, like all greek plays, it is meant to span only 24 hours. This pisses me off the most, as it is unreal that lysistrata would have sent out a call to all the women in greece to convene, tell them, they agree, they take the akropolis, and the men hear of this, discuss, agree, and all is well in the end. Personally i beleive that this is total bull shit. its impossible for that to happen so quickly, and all to end well. This impossibility is only enhanced by the times that this play was written. I realize that this was proabably used to highlight the abusrdity of the notion of abstinence bringing peace, but then again, wasnt aristrophanes trying to prove a point. All of this play was very improbable, and while it didt bother me when i was reading it, discussing it made me realize how foolish this play was, and that it was ridiculous to think that all this could be done in one day.
