Excerpt from Introduction to Studies in Roman Comedy: The Interpretation of Roman Comedy
By way of introduction to various studies of technique in Roman comedy I find it convenient to state briefly, with some illustrative examples, the dominant tendencies, as I see them, in the higher criticism of Plautus and Terence, to suggest the weakness of modern method, and to indicate the possibility of a different point of view and of safer courses of procedure. In such an introduction suggestion rather than demonstration, exposition rather than extended argu ment, are the limited aims of the paper; and I hope that the brevity desirable in prolegomena will not be mistaken for dogmatic assertion.

Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book challenges the widely held belief that the form of Hellenistic comedy descends predominantly from Euripidean tragedy. The author argues that many features of Roman comedy considered Roman corruptions may, in fact, have been inherent in Greek originals and are survivals of the incoherence of earlier Greek comedy. They may also have been influenced by other factors, such as mythological travesty. The author posits that comedy may have developed from a different source altogether or been influenced by a variety of sources, not just tragedy, as theorized. These insights provide a fresh perspective on the connections between Hellenistic comedy, earlier comedy, and tragedy, opening up new avenues for understanding the development of the genre. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781333555832_0
