[EAN: 9780802025746], Gebraucht, sehr guter Zustand, [SC: 4.0], [PU: University of Toronto Press. 01.09.1986.], XIV, 252 Seiten / p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - leicht bestoßen, ansonsten tadelloser Zustand / lightly scuffed, otherwise perfect condition - PREFACE -- When Publius Terentius Afer died in 159 BC, he left to posterity six fabulae palliatae, plays which were his adaptations of examples of Greek New Comedy, four written by Menander and two by Apollodorus of Carystus. In the decades after Terence's death productions of his plays continued, and it is probable that even in the first century BC they were not absent from the Roman stage, even though at this time popular dramatic taste inclined to the mime. In his literary epistle to Augustus, Horace lists the early Latin dramatists as illustrations of how ancient literary figures were overestimated by his contemporaries: 'These (ie Ennius, Naevius, Pacuvius, Afranius, Plautus, Caedlius and Terence) are the dramatist-poets whom mighty Rome learns by heart and watches in a theatre so packed it seems small' (Epist 2.1.60-1). Even if Horace is exaggerating here, he could hardly have said this if revivals of early Latin drama were non-existent or even rare. He himself certainly knew his Terence. He quotes closely, for example, from Eunuchus at Serm 2.3.262ft and refers to Menedemus of the Hauton timorumenos at Serm 1.2.19ft. Horace would have been no exception among the educated classes of Italy, who were probably introduced to the dramatist in their schooldays. If interest in the early figures of Latin literature declined in the first century of the Empire, Terence soon regained his position in the school curriculum. The surviving commentary of Donatus (fl AD 350) and the references within it to earlier grammarians (eg Aemilius Asper and Probus) make that clear enough. -- Because of his popularity many copies of Terence's works must nave been in circulation in antiquity.
