Описание: The theme of this anthology is words, especially words in the context of the Dharma. Words have such power and magic, and yet they also present so many limitations and pitfalls. There are questions of how to use them skilfully and accurately, and the dangers of taking things too literally or misunderstanding metaphors. Indeed, there`s the difference between understanding words and really knowing anything at all. There`s the relationship between words and the truth, and the role poetry plays in connecting them.

This is the first volume dedicated to Plautus' perennially popular comedy Casina that analyses the play for a student audience and assumes no knowledge of Latin. It launches a much-needed new series of books, each discussing a comedy that survives from the ancient world. Four chapters highlight the play's historical context, themes, performance and reception, including its reflection of recent societal trends in marriage and property ownership by women after the Punic Wars, and its complex dynamics on stage. It is ideal for students, but helpful also for scholars wanting a brief introduction to the play.
Casina pits a husband (Lysidamus) and wife (Cleostrata) against each other in a struggle for control of a 16-year-old slave named Casina. Cleostrata cleverly plots to frustrate the efforts of her lascivious elderly husband, staging a cross-dressing 'marriage' that culminates in his complete humiliation. The play provides rich insights into relationships within the Roman family. This volume analyses how Casina addresses such issues as women's status and property rights, the distribution of power within a Roman household, and sexual violence, all within a compellingly meta-comic framework from which Cleostrata emerges as a surprising comic hero. It also examines the play's enduring popularity and relevance.

Описание: Excerpt from Beaumarchais and Plautus, the Sources of the Barbier De S ville: A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Literature in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Department of Romance Languages Pleiade, that break in the history of the indigenous French drama which was marked by the waning popularity of the moralities and mystery plays and the introduction of classical models. In 1567, De Baif gave a representation of the Miles Gloriosus of Plautus, under the title of le'brave, in the Hotel de Guise, before the King. Close upon, De Baif came Larivey with half a dozen plays imitated from Plautus. In the seventeenth century, Rotrou, Corneille, and Moliere all drew upon Plautus, as also did Regnard at the very close of the century. During the first half of the eighteenth century, in spite of some isolated attempts at imitation by Destouches, the tradition that Plautus should be the model for comedy was practically disregarded. Classical tragedy had long since passed away and its mourners were consoling themselves with the com die larmoyante, Moliere and Reg nard, with their frank imitations of Plautus, were gone and mari vaudage held the stage. Before the Revolution, however, a comedy appeared of which the hero was the traditional valet of comedy, the evolutionized Slave of the Plautine play, arrived at the last degree of ingenuity and insolence, the witty, resourceful, impudent Figaro. Once more the echo of the ironical laugh of Plautus was heard, as Beaumarchais, after uttering his gibes at the nobility, through the mouth of Figaro, turned to the audience with a mocking nunc plaudite. Soon after, both Plautus and the ancien regime were driven off the stage by the stern tragedy of the French Revolution.
