Description
Features translations of "The Woman From Andros"; "The Mandrake"; and "Clizia", a work inspired by Plautus' "Casin". This work explores English plays whose racy vernacular language, subtle characterisation, and innovative dramatic construction preceded Shakespeare's establishment of English-speaking theatrical comedy by more than a half century.
