Rome and the Mysterious Orient by Plautus
Still funny after two thousand years, the Roman playwright Plautus wrote around 200 B.C.E., a period when Rome was fighting neighbors on all fronts, including North Africa and the Near East. This title features three plays - Weevil (Curculio), Iran Man (Persa), and Towelheads (Poenulus) - by Plautus.
