The volume opens with papers on Roman comedy: Menaechmi, Trinummus, Hautontimorumenos, papers on women of the demimonde in Truculentus and Eunuchus, Cistellaria and Poenulus. The second part deals with rhetoric, including the subject of imitation as a stylistic feature, the study of performance comparing oratory and comedy and of declamation. Papers on Ovid's Fasti include a study of failed rape-scenes and papers concerned with women's cults. The last part (Senecan tragedy, Lucan, Statius) focuses on Lucan's Civil War and his treatment of Caesar as well as Statius' Thebaid and Achilleid.Beiträge zur Altertumskunde ;Bd. 277.Latin literatureHistory and criticismRhetoric, AncientElectronic books.Latin literatureHistory and criticism.Rhetoric, Ancient.870.9FT 13000rvkFantham Elaine259138MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910456240403321Roman readings1417280UNINA
