阿里斯托芬谐剧对共同体危机的书写

The Crises of Communities in Aristophanes’s Comedies

通过对雅典城邦内外现实境地进行描摹,阿里斯托芬讨论了在雅典帝国一步步发展壮大到达顶峰后又急转直下的过程中,雅典城邦所面临的严峻考验,这些考验不仅仅是城邦共同体需要面对的,同时也威胁着家庭共同体和泛希腊共同体。以阿里斯托芬在《云》和《阿卡奈人》中的书写为例,这三种共同体都处在危机的边缘,这为剧场中的雅典观众提供了一个"认识你自己"的契机,也为他们展示了雅典城邦可能的出路。

By depicting the situation inside and outside the polis,Aristophanes discussed the severe tests faced by the Athens in the process of the Athens Empire gradually developing and reaching its peak and then turning into a downward trend,these tests not only threatened the polis community,but also threatened the family community and Panhellenic community. In Aristophanes’ s The Acharnians and The Clouds,the three communities were on the verge of the crises,this provided an opportunity for the Athenian audience in the theater to“know yourself”,and also showed them the possible way out of dilemma.
