Greek Comedy, Hardback Book

Greek Comedy Hardback

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Comedy series

Hardback

Description

Originally published in 1931, this book surveys the origin and development of Greek Comic Drama, with full discussion not only of Aristophanes and Menander but also of other important playwrights whose work had usually received scant notice because only fragments of it have survived.

The important papyrus-finds of the previous forty years have been expounded and used.

The final chapter is an introduction to comic metre and rhythm.
