The Making of Menander's Comedy. - GOLDBERG, S.M.,

KORTE INHOUD

This book 'offers a sound, clear and up-to-date basic introduction to the best preserved plays of Menander. (...) Two introductory chapters discuss the development of Greek Comedy, the nature of its audience, its conventions and (above all) its relationship to Tragedy. We are introduced to three aspects of play-writing which are examined in more detail in the following three chapters each with reference to one particular play (...). Each play is discussed primarily from its chosen angle, but other aspects are not neglected.' (P.G.McC. BROWN in The Classical Review (New Series), 1985, pp.18-19).
