Synopsis
This 1852 English language translation of Marcus Accius Plautus' twenty complete plays provides a window into Roman comic theatre. Before the 19th century, these plays were not widely accessible in English, and this book was pivotal in making them available to a wider audience. With a particular focus on philological method, the author presents each play alongside critical apparatus and scholarly commentary. These annotations illuminate the plays' complexities, their historical context, and their significance in the development of Roman theatre. The author's in-depth analysis of metre, syntax, and prosody offers a comprehensive resource for scholars and students of Latin literature. This translation and its accompanying commentary continue to be valuable resources for understanding Plautus' work and the broader landscape of Roman comedy.
