Though better known today as a political theorist than as a
dramatist, Machiavelli secured his fame as a giant in the history
of Italian comedy more than fifty years before Shakespeare's
comedies delighted English-speaking audiences. This bilingual
edition includes all three examples of Machiavelli's comedic art:
sparkling translations of his farcical masterpiece, The Mandrake ;
of his version of Terence's The Woman From Andros ; and of his
Plautus-inspired Clizia --works whose genre afforded Machiavelli a
unique vehicle not only for entertaining audiences but for
examining virtue amid the twists and turns of fortune .
