Abstract:

California’s first four assemblywomen began their historic tenure in 1919 in the state’s Forty-Third Session of the Legislature. They joined a growing number of women elected to state legislatures before ratification of the federal suffrage amendment. Entitled to run for office when enfranchised by the state in 1911, and elected in 1918, Esto Broughton (Stanislaus County), Grace Dorris (Kern County), Elizabeth Hughes (Butte County), and Anna Saylor (Alameda County) challenged the all-male exclusivity of the legislature by creating political space for women’s equal inclusion and bringing the value of their diversity as women into lawmaking. Intersectionality informs this history, because assemblywomen’s status as white, middle-class women enabled them to ally with men of similar status and to focus on progress for women of their race and class. Contributing to the history of early women in elective politics, and drawing on newspaper and state legislative records, this article explores how the assemblywomen downplayed their gender in self-presentation but focused on it in legislation. The first four women, moreover, voted on two amendments to the U.S. Constitution, beginning the legislative session with ratification of the Eighteenth Amendment and concluding the year with a vote for the Nineteenth Amendment. Their efforts as California’s first legislators solidified the value of women’s diversity in the legislature and, by voting to extend woman suffrage nationwide, they ensured women’s continued inclusion in elective politics.

The range of this thesis focuses on three plays written by Aristophanes which related with women: Lysistrata, Thesmophoria, and Assemblywomen. The substance of these texts all has correlation because their topics all enclose with one subject: women. No matter in aspects of language or personality or impersonation, in a word, female is the basic core of these texts. The most important of all is that the female body becomes the territory for male and female to discuss and practice the sex issue. The thesis tries to use Bakhtin’s Carnival Theory and the sexual arguments of post-feminists to analyze deeply into the complications and slightness of these plays. In the second chapter of the thesis, I debate about the conceptions of the Carnival Theory and Feminism associated with feminine body and grotesque laughter separately in the second section and the third section. Finally, I concentrate on comparing the correspondence and contradiction and the gap which can be imagined and applied between the two theories. In the third and fourth and fifth chapters of this thesis, I utilize the two theories to interpret and anatomize the three plays. In Lysistrata, Aristophanes is limited to the scope of ideology of monopolistic masculinity. The women in the text v are virtually the tools to consolidate the masculine authority. In addition, on account of the single and absolute ideology of the text, it causes the weakness and feebleness of the Dionysian laughter in the work. However, Aristophanes uses lots of reverse and transgressing conditions to build the foundation of femininity and grotesque in Thesmophoria. Applying the saturnalian principles such as the transgression of genres, the production of sexuality and the combination between body and language provides the release and rebirth of body and laugh in the play. Aristophanes furnishes us with the unlimited possibility of feminine power and the animating practice of grotesque laughter by the dramatic writing of ideal Utopia in Assemblywomen. By introspection the textual concept of the three works, we can see clearly a new and special path that is a more and more optimistic way leading to feminine grotesque to interpret these plays.

Abstract:

Although greater attention has been paid to the fragments of fourth-century comedy than tragedy, there has been no positive synthesis of what they, and the choral text from Aristophanes’ last two plays, Assemblywomen and Wealth, show about the qualities and variety of comic choral performance during this period. Demonstrating that new conclusions can be drawn from well-known material, this chapter analyses the dramatic, comic, and political impact that these texts manifest. A reading of the chorus in Assemblywomen elucidates the comic effects achieved by their act of double transvestism and their allusions to the civic performance of tribally organized circular choruses. Wealth features a chorus engaged in a high-stakes literary battle. Building on this evidence for continuity of practice, varied choral identities, and interaction with actors, the collection of fragments of comic choruses, including Menander’s, are then shown to provide support for this positive picture of dramatic choral activity.

Abstract:

This chapter focuses on Ecclesiazusae or The Assemblywomen as one of the two surviving plays of Aristophanes that were produced during the Corinthian War in the early years of the fourth century BC. It emphasizes that Ecclesiazusae has no precise date or explicit evidence that survived to confirm its exact time of publication, speculating that it could be between years 393 to 389. It also describes the democratic regime at Athens that had been restored between 403 and 402 after the surrender of Athens in 404 and rule of the Thirty. The chapter mentions how Sparta dominated the affairs of Greece and the Aegean. It talks about the friendship between Sparta and Persia that had been crucial in the defeat of Athens but gave place to hostility.
