Plautus' Bacchides is one of the best and most typical of his plays
which in its treatment of character, theme and dialogue provides an
excellent introduction to Plautus. Since the rediscovery of a
passage from its Greek model, Menander's Dis Exapaton, it is now in
the fore-front of scholarly discussion as direct comparisons can
now be made of style and methods. The line-by-line verse
translation aims to reproduce the sense and also to represent
Plautus' linguistic liveliness and metrical variety, while the
commentary explores the literary and dramatic qualities of the play
in the light of modern scholarship. The Dis Exapaton fragment is
given in text and translation. Latin text with facing-page
translation, introduction and commentary.
