Irene is one of the most beautiful comedies of the Great Satirical Poet Aristophanes. It presents the journey of an Athenian vine grower, Trygaeus, who raises a dung beetle and with it flies and reaches Olympus! He wants to free Irene, whom War has imprisoned in a deep cave. Ignoring the reactions of the god Hermes, he calls on all Greeks to help in her liberation. Together with the Dance of the Farmers, they bring Irene into the light and the action of the play is transferred to Earth. In a pandemonium of joy and prosperity, we learn about the virtues of Irene and the destruction of weapon merchants who, now, are led to inaction and unemployment! A wonderful work with abundant laughter and anti-war messages. A patriotic and pan-Hellenic hymn where the whole of Greece welcomes the long-awaited Irene and reconciliation.
