Plautus
This new volume in the Bloomsbury Ancient Comedy Companions series is perfect for students coming to one of Plautus’ most whimsical, provocative, and influential plays for the first time, and a useful first point of reference for scholars less familiar with Roman comedy. Menaechmi is a tale of identical twin brothers who are separated as young children and reconnect as adults following a series of misadventures due to mistaken identity. A glutton…
Plautus
Plautus’ Mostellaria is one of ancient Rome’s most breezy and amusing comedies. The plot is ridiculously simple: when a father returns home after three years abroad, a clever slave named Tranio devises deceptions to conceal that the son has squandered a fortune partying with pals and purchasing his prized prostitute’s freedom. Tranio convinces the gullible father that his house is haunted, that his son has purchased the neighbor’s house, and that…
Plautus
This is the first book-length study of Plautus’ shortest surviving comedy, Curculio, a play in which the tricksy brown-nosed title character (“The Weevil”) bamboozles a shady banker and a pious pimp to secure the freedom of the enslaved girl his patron has fallen for while keeping her out of the clutches of a megalomaniacal soldier. It all takes place in the Greek city Epidaurus, the most important site for the worship of the healing god Aesculap…
Hermippos, Aspasia, and the Fates
In this paper I first survey briefly the career of Hermippos, unfairly dismissed by G. Norwood for being “unimportant as a comic poet.” He wrote parody ( parōidia) and iambics as well as comedy, producing about ten comedies over the years 435 to 415 with five victories. D. Gilula argued that “none of his comedies can be securely dated,” but I can place at least five of these plays to within a year or two of production. My principal interest lies …
Terence
Though Andria launched Terence’s career as a dramatist at Rome, it has attracted comparatively little attention from modern critics. The play nevertheless presents students of Roman comedy with all the features that came to characterize Terence’s particular version of traditional comedy, and it raises all the interpretive questions that have dogged the study of Terence for generations. The first two, comparatively brief chapters of this study ske…
Plautus
This volume provides an introduction to Plautus’s Casina, a sophisticated sex farce that premiered ca. 185 BCE. This companion study of Plautus’s comedy analyses the play for a student audience and assumes no knowledge of Latin but will also be of interest to scholars. It launches a new series of books, each treating a comedy that survives from the ancient world. The introductory chapter provides pertinent background about Plautus’s career transl…
Aristophanes
This is the first volume dedicated to Aristophanes’ comedy Peace that analyses the play for a student audience and assumes no knowledge of Greek. It launches a much-needed new series of books each discussing a comedy that survives from the ancient world. Six chapters highlight the play’s context, themes, staging and legacy including its response to contemporary wartime politics and the possible staging options for flying. It is ideal for students…
Response to Mark Bell's “Defending the Acquisition-Use Presumption in Assessing the Likelihood of Nuclear Terrorism”
This is a response to Mark Bell's “Defending the Acquisition-Use Presumption” by the authors of the original article “Between Acquisition and Use: Assessing the Likelihood of Nuclear Terrorism.”
Between Acquisition and Use
Much of the contemporary literature on nuclear terrorism focuses on the question of whether a terrorist organization could acquire a nuclear weapon. This assumes that once a terrorist group acquires a weapon, they will, at some point, attempt to detonate it in an attack. This article calls that assumption into question by using a strategic perspective to examine the likely behavior of a nuclear-armed terrorist organization. We identify and assess…
The Reckless Unsaid
The First Poets of Old Comedy
This chapter examines what we know of Old Comedy between two key dates, the traditional date of 486 for its formal introduction at the City Dionysia in Athens and the debut of Aristophanes in 427, the only poet of Old Comedy for whom we have complete plays. We know little about the first writers of Old Comedy or the sort of drama they wrote. Only Magnes is more than a name. But we are better informed about the next generation, principally Cratinu…
Southeast Asia and the Rise of China
Since the early 1990s and the end of the Cold War, the implications of China's rising power have come to dominate the security agenda of the Asia-Pacific region. This book is the first to comprehensively chart the development of Southeast Asia’s relations with the People’s Republic of China (PRC) from 1949 to 2010, detailing each of the eleven countries’ ties to the PRC and showing how strategic concerns associated with China's regional posture h…

Origins and Fifth-Century Comedy
Comedy is very probably the product of animal choruses, padded dancers, prancing satyrs, and komasts abusing spectators and one another at festivals. By the early fifth century, it had attained a style and a language of its own and was afforded official status at the dramatic festivals held as part of the City Dionysia. The fifth century witnesses the lessening of the chorus' role in tragedy, and in comedy the chorus becomes relegated to sing ent…
Chapter Five. Bad Language In Aristophanes
Tragedy and comedy have been described as the ?twin offspring of the Athenian theatre, and they were non-identical twins?. In his Nicomachean Ethics (1128a22?25), written incidentally before the advent of Menander and ?New? Comedy, Aristotle distinguishes ?older? comedies ( palaioi ) from ?modern? ones ( kainoi ) by the nature of their humor. Aristophanes generally uses milder terms to describe making fun of his comic targets. More common is Aris…

Sport and Festival in the Ancient Greek World
First launched at the time of the Athens Olympics, Sport and Festival in the Ancient Greek World has become a classic study in its field. The 15 illustrated chapters of this collection not only explore many aspects of the ancient Olympics and the rich programme of competitive festivals in democratic Athens but also the broader religious, social and political contexts in which sport and festival flourished in ancient Greece. The book shows how the…
Cutting Comedies
In this paper I want to consider one controversial aspect of the ancient conditions of dramatic production: how many comedies were produced at the Athenian dramatic festivals in the late fifth century. I wonder how often we teachers of courses in ancient drama have repeated as gospel the conclusion of, for example, Pickard-Cambridge (p.83) that during the Peloponnesian War the number of competitors was reduced from five to three: The normal numbe…

Classical Greek Theatre
Archaeological and written sources relating to classical Greek theatre are diverse, scattered, and disconnected. Clifford Ashby's own (and memorable) fieldwork led him to more than one hundred theatre sites in Greece, southern Italy, Sicily, and Albania and as far into modern Turkey as Hellenic civilization had penetrated. From this extensive research, he draws a number of novel revisionist conclusions on the nature of classical theatre architect…

In his article on the early career of Aristophanes, in particular on the relevance of the thiasotai on IG ii 2 .2343 and the importance of Herakles in the plays of Aristophanes, David Welsh has supported the thesis of Dow, that several of the thiasotai are mentioned by Aristophanes in his plays (e.g. Simon, Amphitheus, Antitheos). He suggests that another of these thiasotai , Lysanias, may be alluded to at Clouds 1162. Here the unusual word λυσαν…
