John Fletcher 's drama is set in Ancient Greece as the general Alcibiades persuades Athens to launch an attack on Sicily. Alcibiades was a member of the Athens baby boomer generation, whose elders had fought to give their children a society of justice, wealth and education. They explored every sexual avenue, took drugs to excess, and became the greatest consumers of the most exotic products in history. Within two years of the defeat in Sicily, imperial, democratic
