Description

Menander in Contexts explores the comedies of the Athenian dramatist Menander (c. 342-291 BC) and his contemporaries, whose works established the foundation for Western light drama traditions that persist today. Lost for over a millennium, Menander's plays were recovered through papyrus discoveries, enabling him to reclaim his position among major ancient Greek dramatists alongside Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides and Aristophanes. This Routledge monograph features sixteen expert contributors who examine and contextualise Menander's surviving works, offering fresh perspectives on his dramatic techniques, cultural significance and lasting influence on theatre history. The book provides essential scholarly analysis for classicists, theatre historians and students of ancient literature seeking to understand how Menander's comedy shaped dramatic conventions across centuries.
