Description
The contributions collected in this volume are mainly dedicated to the Greek fragmentary comedy of the 4th-3rd century BC. and to the Latin one, especially the palliata, with some considerations also on the togata and the fabula Atellana. The edition and interpretation of the comic fragments pose methodological problems, but the partial preservation of the texts allows, however, to deepen some dramaturgical and linguistic aspects. The tradition of the fragments is partly due to the citations and reworkings of later writers. The final section of the volume is dedicated to Greek and Latin mime. The contributions collected in this volume primarily focus on Greek and Roman fragmentary comedy, from 4th-3rd century B.C. down to palliata (along with togata and fabula Atellana). The edition and interpretation of comic fragments raise some problems in methodology; nevertheless, dramaturgical and linguistic aspects of such texts, which are preserved only partially, can be investigated. The transmission of the fragments partly depends on quotations and adaptations made by later writers. The last section of the volume is devoted to Greek and Roman mime.
