1 Some of the material and ideas he puts forward has already appeared in an article entitled ‘Arte compositiva e politica in Aristofane: il discorso di Ermete nella Pace (603–48)’ published in RFIC 110 (1982), 22ff.

2 Cf. Bain, D. M., Asides and Related Conventions in Greek Drama (Diss. ined. Oxon. 1974, 291)Google Scholar: ‘one play does indeed stand out from the others in respect of audience address and reference to the audience. That is Peace. Given its theme, this is not perhaps surprising.’

3 It is perhaps worth recalling that the dedicatee of C.'s book, the late Colin Macleod, often expressed admiration and affection for the play.
