This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Influence of Plautus on the Comedies of Ben Jonson: A Thesis for the Doctorate in Philosophy There must be some reason for this general imitation of the Plautine comedies, some merit in the plays them selves. That a writer Of Ben Jonson's acknowledged classical tastes and tendencies 2 should turn to the greatest comedian the ancient Roman world could pro duce for assistance, ' is not strange; but it is remark able that he should have made direct adaptation of portions of the Plautine comedies in various instances, and that other authors also, as Shakespeare and Field ing, who were not classicists naturally, should turn to Plautus for ideas. This can be accounted for by estab lishing three facts, i. E.: 1, that the Plautine comedies were highly esteemed and popular 2, that the literary style of Plautus was such as to appeal directly to the people 3, that these comedies by continued presenta tion on the stage had grown to be familiar to the pub lic. As such proof is material and precedent to any statement of direct influence which Plautus may have had on Ben Jonson's comedies, it will be advantageous to consider these questions.

Book Plautus and the English Renaissance of Comedy

Download or read book Plautus and the English Renaissance of Comedy written by Richard F. Hardin and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fifteenth-century discovery of Plautus’s lost comedies brought him, for the first time since antiquity, the status of a major author both on stage and page. It also led to a reinvention of comedy and to new thinking about its art and potential. This book aims to define the unique contribution of Plautus, detached from his fellow Roman dramatist Terence, and seen in the context of that European revival, first as it took shape on the Continent. The heart of the book, with special focus on English comedy ca. 1560 to 1640, analyzes elements of Plautine technique during the period, as differentiated from native and Terentian, considering such points of comparison as dialogue, asides, metadrama, observation scenes, characterization, and atmosphere. This is the first book to cover this ground, raising such questions as: How did comedy rather suddenly progress from the interludes and brief plays of the early sixteenth century to longer, more complex plays? What did “Plautus” mean to playwrights and readers of the time? Plays by Shakespeare, Jonson, and Middleton are foregrounded, but many other comedies provide illustration and support.

Book The Life of Comedy after the Death of Plautus and Terence

Download or read book The Life of Comedy after the Death of Plautus and Terence written by Mathias Hanses and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2020-12-10 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Life of Comedy after the Death of Plautus and Terence documents the ongoing popularity of Roman comedies, and shows that they continued to be performed in the late Republic and early Imperial periods of Rome. Playwrights Plautus and Terence impressed audiences with stock characters as the young-man-in-love, the trickster slave, the greedy pimp, the prostitute, and many others. A wide range of spectators visited Roman theaters, including even the most privileged members of Roman society: orators like Cicero, satirists like Horace and Juvenal, and love poets like Catullus and Ovid. They all put comedy’s varied characters to new and creative uses in their own works, as they tried to make sense of their own lives and those of the people around them by suggesting comparisons to the standard personality types of Roman comedy. Scholars have commonly believed that the plays fell out of favor with theatrical audiences by the end of the first century BCE, but The Life of Comedy demonstrates that performances of these comedies continued at least until the turn of the second century CE. Mathias Hanses traces the plays’ reception in Latin literature from the late first century BCE to the early second century CE, and shines a bright light on the relationships between comic texts and the works of contemporary and later Latin writers.
