Menander, Volume I by Menander
Menander, the dominant figure in New Comedy, wrote over 100 plays, of which one complete play, substantial portions of six others, and smaller but interesting fragments have been recovered. The complete play, Dyskolos (The Peevish Fellow), won first prize in Athens in 317 BC.
The new Loeb Menander… has received a warm welcome… It is a work of solid and meticulous scholarship, the mature production of an acknowledged authority on Greek Comedy* Classical Review *
An excellent guide to Menander… Arnott has given us fine texts, clear translations, brief and useful introductions, and the help that is needed to make sense [of the] fragments. -- David Konstan * Scholia Reviews *
