Resumen:
This work is a study of women in Lysistrata work (the strike of sex), Aristophanes.
Recognized by many scholars the most malicious of his works and use of popular language,
Aristophanes keeps the lightness and grace of the dialogues in his dramaturgy. The author,
with all his cleverness, joins the seduction and eroticism with moral purpose. The Greek
writer makes women leave the sex not only for their own benefit, but to maintain the nation's
peace. Another objective of this study is the existential paradox for the time, since the text of
the play: in a patriarchal society (fifth century BC), where men had absolute authority,
appears Lysistrata with their revolutionary ideals, becomes leader of a movement and causes
the end of a war. This research is bibliographical, using the following analytical categories:
the concept of the comic and carnivalization. This research was based on the following
authors: Mario da Gama Kury (2006), Anna Flora (2002), Junito de Sousa Brandão (1996),
Bakhtin (1997; 1999; 2005) among others.
