Episode 2 of Aristophanes' Frogs: Dionysus meets Heracles

Welcome back folks and welcome new subscribers! In our first video, we met Xanthias the comic slave and Dionysus the god in disguise. This video takes a closer look at Dionysus' meeting with his brother Heracles (or Hercules) to ask advice before going into the underworld. This is second half of the prologue to Frogs. We take a look at how Greek comedy would have been performed by comparing Aristophanes to the New York production of Frogs. We also unpick jokes about the Peloponnesian war by comparing Aristophanes' Dionysus to Richie in Bottom. This video has one penis joke, but is appropriate for use in A-Level classrooms.
