Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an erudite examination of the clever and often bawdy use of names by the comic playwrights of ancient Athens. It delves into the significance of names in a culture where they were carefully chosen and often carried symbolic or humorous connotations. The author explor…es how these dramatists employed various techniques to elicit laughter from their audiences, including wordplay, double entendres, and allusions to historical figures and events. Through meticulous analysis of specific examples, the book sheds light on Athenian society and its preoccupations.

By examining the ways in which names were subverted and reinterpreted, this book uncovers the subtle nuances and wit embedded within Athenian comedies. Ultimately, this work highlights the enduring power of language and humor in shaping our understanding of the past. It offers valuable insights into the creative genius of these ancient playwrights and the enduring legacy of their comedic masterpieces.
