Terence: Andria
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-350-02063-4 (ISBN)
Though Andria launched Terence’s career as a dramatist at Rome, it has attracted comparatively little attention from modern critics. It is nevertheless a play of great interest, not least for the sensitivity with which it portrays family relationships and for its influence on later dramatists. It also 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. This volume will use a close reading of the play to explore the central issues in understanding Terence’s style of play-making and its legacy.
Sander M. Goldberg is Distinguished Research Professor of Classics, at the University of California, Los Angeles, USA. He has published widely on the Roman theatrical tradition as well as producing specific studies of Terence, including a monograph and commentary on one of Terence's most problematic plays, the Hecyra.
