Description

When A Young Man Falls in Love offers a critical examination of New Comedy plays, revealing how sexual relationships between male and female protagonists operate as fundamentally exploitative dynamics. This scholarly work poses essential questions about the dramatic portrayal of women in ancient Greek and Roman theatre, drawing on analysis of approximately 50 plays from the period. Through thorough and enlightening detail, the book explores representations of women across both Greek and Roman new comedy traditions, providing readers with a deeper understanding of gender relations and power structures embedded within classical dramatic literature. Published by Routledge, this study contributes significantly to drama criticism and classical studies by uncovering the problematic sexual politics underlying seemingly romantic narratives in ancient theatrical works.
