Very light shelfwear else fine. ; La presente obra miscelànea reùne estudios y nuevas perspectivas de investigaciòn sobre textos fragmentarios del teatro griego. Los autores abordan cuestiones relativas a los ecos paròdicos euripideos en las comedias de Aristòfanes (G. Mastromarco, F. Silva) ; discuten problemas de composiciòn o de interpretaciòn de tragedias fragmentarias , como el Pirìtoo de Critias (A. Melero) , la trilogìa esquilea dedicata a Aquiles (P. Totaro) o la Hipsìpila de Eurìpides (J. L. Lòpez Cruces) ; reflexionan sobre cuestiones textuales del Reso (M. Labiano) ; analizan aspectos estilìsticos como la hipèrbole còmica en los fragmentos de la archaia (L. Rodrìguez – Noriega) o motivos tòpicos como la misoginia aristofànica (J. Martìnez) ; ponen de manifiesto la degradaciòn de formas y de contenidos de la épica homérica en un comediògrafo "menor" como Hermipo (M. Pellegrino) ; examinan cuestiones de la rivalidad poética entre Cratino y Aristòfanes (M. J. Garcìa Soler) ; y estudian el Fortleben de algunas caracterìsticas fundamentales del drama àtico en el teatro actual (Th. Grammatàs).; Prosopa. Teatro Greco: Studi E Commenti 4; 262 pages

How should we understand the compelling mix of rebellion and social conservatism that Plautus offers? Through a close reading of four plays representing the full range of his work (Menaechmi, Casina, Persa, and Captivi) , Kathleen McCarthy develops an innovative model of Plautine comedy and its social effects. She concentrates on how the plays are shaped by the interaction of two comic modes: the socially conservative mode of naturalism and the potentially subversive mode of farce. It is precisely this balance of the naturalistic and the farcical that allows everyone in the audience--especially those well placed in the social hierarchy--to identify both with and against the rebel, to feel both the thrill of being a clever underdog and the complacency of being a securely ensconced authority figure. ; 240 pages
