This is a new text, commentary, and translation of Plautus’ most challenging and uproarious farce, the Casina. Equipped with an ample introduction, it is aimed both at those with and without Latin; both at students and at scholars new to Plautus. For those who wish to appreciate the Latin, the commentary provides generous help, and the text has been thoroughly marked up to facilitate reciting the original meters. For Latin-less readers, the new translation aims to capture the verve and kaleidoscopic variety of Plautus’ Latin. Finally, both introduction and commentary incorporate the insights of the recent boom in research on Roman Comedy. The introduction situates the text in its historical context, presents recent interpretive trends, and offers a window into the comedy’s importance in the history of Western comedy.
