Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Four Plays of Menander: The Hero, Epitrepontes, Periceiromene and Samia; Edited With Introductions, Explanatory Notes, Critical Appendix, and Bibliography Imperial Public Library of St. Petersburg, have been of assistance in constituting the text. I have ventured to depend upon these reproductions in a few instances, especially in the mutilated end of the second Leipzig fragment, and to depart from the readings favored by the scholars who have examined the manuscripts directly. The lack of a photographic reproduction of the Cairo manuscript is a serious handicap to every editor and has greatly retarded the work of reconstructing the text. Not only are passages still uncertain which would in all probability have been finally restored, but the wavering and often conflicting testimony of the scholars who have examined the papyrus has led to an unnecessary and unfortunate multiplication of conjectural restorations. And yet, with our pres ent imperfect knowledge of this manuscript, many proposed restorw tions which will ultimately be discarded have at present a provisional standing in the history of the text and will assist both in the final decipherment of doubtful verses and in the interpretation of hope lessly defective passages. I have therefore thought it desirable to give in the Critical Appendix a full report of the divergent or mutually complementary readings of Lefebvre, Korte, and di Ricci, and also to record rather fully the more notable restorations that have been suggested. It is hoped that the Critical Appendix, in spite of its bulk, will be found useful as a record of the scholarly labor which has been bestowed upon this manuscript since its dis covery. It should be added, however, that no such record can do full justice to the contributions of the first editor, M. Lefebvre.

Download or read book Menander Epitrepontes written by Alan H. Sommerstein and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-04-08 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces readers who may have no previous knowledge of Menander's comedies to Epitrepontes (The Arbitration), arguably the most exquisitely crafted of his better-preserved plays. It explains what we know about the play, how we know it, and how far we can tentatively fill in the gaps in our knowledge. Sommerstein analyses the nature of the dramatic genre (Athenian New Comedy) to which Epitrepontes belongs. He assesses the plot and the characters, every one of whom makes an essential contribution to the uplifting outcome, and the social and ethical assumptions that dramatist and audience shared. As well as looking at the influences of earlier drama and of contemporary philosophical and popular thought, he considers the afterlife of Menandrian comedy in general and of Epitrepontes in particular, both in antiquity and in modern times, but also in the long period in between, when Menander was the great dramatist whose plays were thought to have been irrevocably lost.

Download or read book Epitrepontes written by Menander (of Athens.) and published by Aris & Phillips Classical Text. This book was released on 2010 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though in antiquity the social comedies of Menander ranked second in popularity only to Homer, his plays were for centuries thought to be irretrievably lost. It was only in the 20th century that large sections of his work began to emerge, The Arbitration's major portion published in 1907, The Shield in 1969. With these and other finds we can now gauge in full the skill that Menander brought to his works. In preparing this edition the author has aimed to make accessible to readers some of the consummate sophistication in dramatic technique and use of language that once produced the question, `Menander and Life, which of you imitated the other?'

Download or read book Menander in Antiquity written by Sebastiana Nervegna and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-04-25 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The comic playwright Menander was one of the most popular writers throughout antiquity. This book reconstructs his life and the legacy of his work until the end of antiquity employing a broad range of sources such as portraits, illustrations of his plays, papyri preserving their texts and inscriptions recording their public performances. These are placed within the context of the three social and cultural institutions which appropriated his comedy, thereby ensuring its survival: public theatres, dinner parties and schools. Dr Nervegna carefully reconstructs how each context approached Menander's drama and how it contributed to its popularity over the centuries. The resultant, highly illustrated, book will be essential for all scholars and students not just of Menander's comedy but, more broadly, of the history and iconography of the ancient theatre, ancient social history and reception studies.
