About the author

Titus Maccius Plautus (c. 254 – 184 BC), commonly known as Plautus, was a Roman playwright of the Old Latin period. His comedies are the earliest works in Latin literature to have survived in their entirety. He wrote Palliata comoedia, the genre devised by the innovator of Latin literature, Livius Andronicus. The word Plautine refers to both Plautus's own works and works similar to or influenced by his.

Reviews

[Pablo Toscano · Rating 3 out of 5]

Tiene momentos graciosos que superan a la Aulularia y a Anfitrión, pero sigue bastante la línea de esas obras. He de destacar también lo surrealista por momentos que es esta comedia, ¡Por Pólux!
