Farmer, Matthew C.: Fragmenta Comica, Band 14: Theopompus/Theopompos

Introduction, [Edition], Translation, Commentary. Hrsg. im Auftrag der Heidelberger Akademie der Wissenschaften. Fragmente und Testimonien griechisch und englisch, Einleitung und Kommentar englisch. Theopompos was one of the leading comic playwrights of late fifth- and early fourth-century Athens, competing actively with the great Aristophanes and winning several victories. This volume presents the first complete translation and commentary on his surviving fragments. He participated in important trends during the transition from Old to Middle Comedy, including tragic and epic parody and an interest in the figure of the hetaira; among other gems, his fragments include the oldest extant reference to the philosopher Plato. 264 Seiten, gebunden (Fragmenta Comica FrC; Band 14/Heidelberger Akademie der Wissenschaften/Verlag Antike 2022) leichte Lagerspuren/minor shelfwear
