Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the techniques and framework of the Roman playwright Terence, dissecting how he crafted his plays by structurally examining the origins of the work in relation to the Greek sources from which he drew, most notably the comic playwright Menander. The author assesses the impact and influence of Greek comedic structure, including its predominant themes and the way that character interaction was used as a plot device, while also considering the limitations that were imposed upon Terence and the factors that influenced his decisions on how closely to stick to source material or to diverge from it. Insightfully demonstrating how Terence engaged with earlier Greek texts and the reasons behind his decisions regarding the development of his own work, this book is an invaluable and detailed resource for students and scholars of classical and comparative literature, as well as anyone with an interest in the development of comedic technique in theatre. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282040772_0
