Encuadernación de tapa blanda. Condition: Nuevo. 288 pp/ Akal Clásica, nº 039/ Edición de Benjamín García-Hernández/ Afirmar que Plauto es el mayor cómico de todos los tiempos no es ninguna exageración. No habrían tenido incoveniente en confirmar semejante declaración el comedido Menandro, al que Plauto superó en fuerza cómica;…ni Shakespeare, el mayor de los dramaturgos, que se inspiró en él; ni Moliére, el discípulo aventajado del cómico latino; ni Lope de Vega, que, aunque tuvo a gala su independencia, no dejó de aprender en la escuela plautina. Todo en Plauto rezuma comicidad: personajes, acción, situación, ambientación y, sobre todo, la lengua que maneja a la perfección. De las tres comedias que se presentan, "Anfitrión y los Menecmos" han sido modelos constantes de la comedia de equívoco o de personajes dobles, y "Las Báquides" también participa de ese carácter/ R.

Rústica. Condition: Nuevo. 350 pp/ Akal Clásica, nº 070/ Edición de Carmen González Vázquez/ La genialidad teatral que Plauto (comediógrafo romano del siglo III a.C.) alcanzó en sus comedias le granjeó el éxito clamoroso del público de su época y también del actual. Símbolo del teatro romano antiguo, en sus comedias se aúnan la…tradición dramática griega, la romana y el teatro popular autóctono, que se traducen en una particular concepción del espectáculo. En sus obras encontramos un humor peculiar, salpicado de recursos cómicos, léxicos y lingüísticos reflejados en la riqueza de situaciones y caracteres, que se han convertido en personajes-tipo del teatro posterior. Su técnica dramática y sus comedias han influido decisivamente en el teatro occidental, para el cual Plauto es un obligado referente. En este volumen se presentan cuatro piezas con un estudio novedoso de cada una de ellas que sirve como guía de lectura. Las cuatro comedias concentran su intriga en torno a la técnica del metateatro, después utilizada por Shakespeare, Lope de Vega o Moliere/ R8-2.

"Tacitus depicts Petronius, the arbiter of elegance, as a man of sophisticated and luxurious tastes, lazy and inert in his ordinary life but capable of energy in public affairs. He incurred the jealousy of Tigellinus, the joint commander of the praetorian guard, who falsely denounced him as the friend of a conspirator, so that Petronius, on receiving an ominous command from the palace not to move from the house in which he was staying at Cumae, was compelled to take his own life. He dies with easy panache, after first writing out a full list of Nero's sexual irregularities, with the names attached, and making sure that the document was duly sent to the emperor under seal."

Jacques De Puy's woodcut printer's device to title of the Samaritan woman and Christ at the well and legend on p. 201 verso ("Deus nobis haec otia fecit").… Woodcut statement of responsibility Par B.D.V. on title page above printer's device. Woodcut chapter head and initial on p. 2. Printed marginalia throughout. Later French calf, edges speckled in red; (some marginal worming or light dampstains; some light outerwear, otherwise good; front board strengthened. This is the second volume of the French translation of the "History of Rome" or Decades of Livy by Jean de Amelin (or Hamelin) and printed by Jacques du Puys in 1582; this "troisiesme" part (third decade) contains the first books for the Second Punic War, also known as the War against Hannibal. Jean de Amelin was a celebrated marshal andserved in the army of Henry II of France. He is known as the earliest translator into French of Livy, publishing his first complete version of the third Decade in Paris in 1559, with the "Arguments" of Florus, and notes and annotations. Jean de Amelin's translation of the Decades was deemed useful in its time for its ample printed marginalia that supplied the modern names of villages, rivers, and provinces in France. In 1580, Blaise de Vigenère (1523-1596), a competing French translator and cryptographer, published his corrections to the already existing Jean de Amelin translations, followed by his personal translation of the last four books of the decade. These editions of the Livy Decades, enriched with Blaise de Vigenère's annotations, comprise the Parisian issues by Jacques du Puys appearing between 1580 and 1584 therein the title pages are marked with his script monogram"B.D.V." to acknowledge his responsibility for the work. Although Blaise de Vigenère prevailed as the preeminent sixteenth-century commentator and scholar of Livy, his work originated in that of Jean de Amelin; the latter not yet eclipsed in the title. This edition isnot common; OCLC locates copies at the Univ. of Pennsylvania and the Univ. of Illinois.
