Lysistrata is a comedy that shows how men are weak when it comes to lust. In the play Lysistrata, Aristophanes somehow swaps the gender roles in Greek society and uses it as a tool of humor. His original work, was to entertain an audience of ancient Greece. In Oedipus the King, by Sophocles, committed murder, but did not know who king Laius was. Although, Oedipus was royalty. He focused more on himself than the community. Before he received power as the king of Thebes, he allowed his arrogance to control his judgment and take over his actions.
