In ancient times Menander (341-290 BC) was the most admired and most quoted of the Greek playwrights. His plays are romantic comedies dealing with the lives of ordinary Athenian families. This new verse translation, which includes explanatory notes and a full introduction, follows the text of Menander closely but attempts to fill some of the gaps using surviving words in damaged papyri so the reader has, as far as possible, a consecutive text.
