The Pot of Gold and Other Plays
This Plautus collection presents Roman comedy through greed, mistaken identity, clever slaves, anxious fathers and chaotic households. The plays adapt Greek comic plots into vigorous Latin theatre, giving republican Rome a comic language of money, deception and social reversal.
