It was strange to see a Southerner talk about the injustices

    what extent ! does ‘Lysistrata’ conform to this notion?! 1 People, it seems, like to laugh at themselves. Self-depreciation is a classic pillar of humour, erected by the Greeks in plays of the Old Comedy genre and remaining even now in the modern- day stand-up show.
