The Art of Pacifism; Tuesday, Fifth Period [ 02/15 ].
Guess who has two thumbs and spent all weekend in a drunken stupor thinking he was having an affair with the Queen of France?
THIS GUY!
So Shunsui had no sympathy for your plight of the weekend and, besides, even if he had known about it, if you had a child, it meant you probably had sex, so good job!
"Welcome back, my little ducklings ♥!" Shunsui greeted them over his cocoa. "Hopefully, you've had a chance to at the very least look over the play given to you last week so that we can discuss it a bit more directly.
"You got the introduction to it last week, so I'll skip all that and get to the questions. How did you like it, as a literary piece or otherwise? What did you feel Aristophanes was trying to say in this comedic venture, if anything? Do you feel that it's a good example for pacifists to turn to, or do you suppose pacifists who cite it are just trying too hard to see what they'd like to see in this work of fiction? It's also considered a feminist tract; do you see that, too? Do you approve of the title character's strategy in getting the soldiers to peace, or does it tread on other moral questions that should be in consideration as well? Is peace something that should be achieved by any means necessary, or is war sometimes better than peace? Are there any other questions I've forgetting? Is it really just a piece of comedic junk just for giggles and not at all worthy of all this discussion in the first place?
"Let's begin, shall we?"
