“Lysistrata” is a bawdy anti-war comedy by the ancient Greek playwright Aristophanes, first staged in 411 BCE. It is the comic account of one woman's extraordinary mission to end the Peloponnesian War, as Lysistrata convinces the women of Greece to withhold sexual privileges from their husbands as a means of forcing the men to negotiate a peace. Some consider it his greatest work, and it is probably the most anthologised.

Η ηρωίδα του έργου Λυσιστράτη πείθει τις Αθηναίες να καταφύγουν σε ερωτική αποχή έναντι των συζύγων τους με σκοπό τον τερματισμό του πολέμου. Στο τέλος επέρχεται η συμφιλίωση. Από τα δημοφιλέστερα αριστοφανικά έργα.
