Photograph Peter Smith. Many characters from classical comedy are memorable: the miles gloriosus, or braggart soldier, on whom (in part) the character of Falstaff is based; the senex* ("old man"), an elderly parent who uses his authority or the law to thwart the young lovers; Egeus has this role in A Midsummer Night's Dream One of Shakespeare's earliest comedies is based closely upon two Latin originals. The Comedy of Errors takes the plots of two plays by Plautus: the Menaechmi, a play about long separated twins who are mistaken for each other and are eventually reunited; and the Amphitruo, where masters and servants become confused. Shakespeare combined the two plots, and added twin servants to the twin masters to complicate things further. Click to see the original Roman Theatre at Ephesus , where The Comedy of Errors is set.

Bryn Mawr Classical Review 1999.05.03 Timothy J. Moore, The Theater of Plautus . Austin: University of Texas Press, 1998. Pp. 263. ISBN 0-292-75208-3 (hb). $35.95. ISBN 0-292-75217-2 (pb). $17.95. Reviewed by Fred Franko, Hollins University (franko@hollins.edu) Word count: 2376 words This is a good book. Moore gives a careful, judicious analysis of Plautine theater. He does not dazzle with flamboyant new interpretations of the plays; rather, he provides a sound overview of Plautine theatricality and intelligent readings of individual plays. This book can be recommended to anyone engaged in the study of Plautus, from beginner to advanced scholar. The book has two parts. The first outlines the basic principles of Moore's approach and the second applies that approach to six plays ( Pseudolus, Amphitruo, Curculio, Truculentus, Casina, Captivi ). There are also shorter (4-9 page) discussions of Miles, Rudens, Trinummus , and Aulularia. Moore has not restricted his study to only those plays he finds congenial to his arguments, but instead he has chosen representative plays. The index of passages cited confirms that his arguments are applicable throughout the extant corpus. Chapter One, "Actors and Spectators," proceeds from the observation that actors are vulnerable, that is, they require the approval of the audience to succeed. Dying is easy, comedy is hard. To secure approval, Plautus' actors confront the audience "with a mixture of fawning obsequiousness and brazen arrogance" (9), engaging them now with flattery, now with teasing. Such modes of address, although particularly evident in prologues, are pervasive in the extant scripts as actors continually engage the audience with monologues (roughly 1/6 of the extant corpus is made up of monologue), imperatives, and "pointing words" (

D I D A S K A L I A ABOUT JOURNAL ... Issue 1 FEATURES ROMAN STAGINGS: Performing Plautus in the Provinces By Leslie Cahoon Department of Classics Gettysburg College Gettysburg, PA 17325 E-mail: Leslie.Cahoon@jupiter.cc.gettysburg.edu An earlier version of this paper was presented as part of the 'Comedy Today' panel at the 1995 APA annual meeting in San Diego. Plautus's plays notoriously feature inversions of the social order, reversals of traditional patterns of dominance. James Tatum's splendid translations of Truculentus and Bacchides encouraged my students to bring Plautine abuses home to Americaour Truculentus is loosely cast as a western drama in a fictive Athens, Wyoming with Native American slaves and Bacchides is vaguely situated in the 1920's. In both plays, characters who purport to represent traditional Roman moral values fathers, tutors, soldiersturn out to be just as morally compromised and self-seeking as those who represent subversive Greek decadence and irresponsibilitylovers, courtesans, and slaves. Again, in both plays, courtesans and slaves triumph over the ruling classes and reveal their depravities, as well as the unjust and abusive nature of the Roman social order. Somewhat similarly, the social order at Gettysburg College is confounded by the necessity for the dominant 'Greeks' (fraternity and sorority members) to work with various 'geek' sub-groups in order to put together successful final performances in my ancient drama courses.

Robert Edward Titus Maccius Plautus We know, however, that at some point the young Plautus gave up his acting career to become a Roman soldier, and this is probably when he was exposed to the delights of the Greek stage, specifically Greek New Comedy and the plays of Menander. Sometime later, he tried his hand as a merchant, but rashly trusted his wares to the sea and at the age of 45, he found himself penniless and reduced to a wandering miller, trudging through the streets with a hand-mill, grinding corn for householders. He continued to some extent the social satire of Aristophanes. His Miles Gloriosus refers to the imprisonment of the poet Naevius for satirizing the aristocracy. His Cistellaria alludes to the conflict with Carthage. Epidicius and Aulularia refer to the repeal of the puritanic Oppian Laws. And Captivi and Bacchides mention the wars in Greece and Magnesia. For the most part, however, he preferred the style of the more recent Greek writers like Menander. Along with his younger Roman counterpart, Terence, Plautus kept Greek New Comedy alive for later generations of theatregoers.

The slavery that was Rome (in Plautus, Terence, and Petronius) a book review by Richard Seltzer, seltzer@samizdat.com www.samizdat.com The most popular plays of Plautus and Terence focus on the role of slaves. In Prisoners of War by Plautus, the prisoners face a moral dilemna: because they were captured they are now slaves and it would be cheating to try to escape rather than to wait to be ransomed/bought back by their families. In The Rope by Plautus, the beautiful young girl that the hero is in love with is a slave, who he seeks to buy from her owner. It then turns out that she had been born free but was kidnapped as a child and sold into slavery. In The Brothers and Phormio by Terence, once again the love interest centers around slave girls and the challenge is not that of winning hearts but rather bargaining with the procurers who own them. While Plautus and Terence both borrowed their plots from Greek sources, they modified them in accordance with Roman slave laws, and legal niceties are often key to the resolution. So from the context of the plays what are these laws?

Since creation to present day, females have been denied rights, mistreated and held unaccountable for complex thought and reasoning. The views of women held by the citizens of each historical period and generation has been depicted in the literature from that time. The role of the women in the Bible was to be man’s helper and this idea traveled from generation to generation. In ancient civilizations women were still seen as servants to their husbands and having a lack of intelligence and reason. Two playwrights from the ancient civilizations of Greece and Rome keyed into this aspect of human relationships. Although the plight of women may have improved from the Greek world to the Roman world, it is not evident in the plays written by famous authors, Aristophanes and Plautus. The literature from these two men holds the same, condescending view that women were servants and incapable of more than domesti!

The gravity of Egeon's predicament, and the play's potential for tragedy, is rendered even more poignant by the senex's constant grief. In direct contrast, the prologue of Menaechmi is witty, urbane, and very informal. Not only does the speaker slyly mock the audience ("Please listen with your whole attention span; / I'll tell it in the very fewest words I can" ), he delivers a rather sharp jab to other Roman comic playwrights, who proudly boast of their authenticity and "their fidelity to the Greek models, a practice which evidently had some snob appeal." Ironically, this jab seves as a basis for the playwright to assert his own authenticity and dramatic authority: I reveal the real locations when I speak to you.
