Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
The happy endings of comedy resolve conflicts that have their sources in the real world. These conflicts, in turn, leave their mark upon the texts in the form of gaps in the plot and inconsistencies of characterization. Greek Comedy and Ideology analyses how the structure of ancient Greek comedy betrays and responds to cultural tensions in the society of the classical city-state. Individual chapters treat Aristophanic and Menandrean comedies, with a final chapter on Moli?re.

Greek Comedy and Ideology collects eleven elegantly written essays on Greek comedy ... All the essays have appeared in print before; but they have been revised for this republication, and one is glad in any case to have them readily accessible in one place ... it is unfailingly readable, intelligent and stimulating - which in my estimation makes it an uncommonly good book.
