About this book
In the late 3rd century BC, Titus Maccius Plautus penned a collection of comedies that have stood the test of time. "Amphitryo, Asinaria, Aulularia, Bacchides, Captivi" showcases the wit and humor of ancient Roman theater. The document introduces readers to the mischievous gods and mortals in plays like "Amphitryo," which delves into mythological themes, and "The Pot of Gold," known for its clever plot twists. Ideal for students of classical literature and historians exploring ancient Roman culture, this compilation offers a glimpse into the comedic genius of Plautus and the enduring appeal of his works.
