Fourteen of the manuscripts produced between 800 and 1200 were given some kind of illustration. In this volume, Beatrice Radden Keefe explores the semiotics of the imagery found in the earliest illustrated Terence manuscripts, and its relationship to the iconography of comedy and theatre from antiquity. She examines six further manuscripts to show how later illustrators abandoned this imagery to varying degrees, finding new emphases and creating new layers of meaning. Illustrators of Terence, it is demonstrated here, brought a range of interests to illustrating the comedies, clarifying their narrative, incorporating social commentary and moralisation, and linking them with Christian allegorical traditions. 410 0$aLibrary of the written word ;$vVolume 97. 606 $aLatin drama (Comedy)$vIllustrations 608 $aLiterary criticism.$2lcgft 615 0$aLatin drama (Comedy) 676 $a872.01 700 $aRadden Keefe$b Beatrice$01658475 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816731203321 996 $aThe illustrated afterlife of Terence's comedies (800-1200)$94012499 997 $aUNINA
