Rent A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum from your local video store. This is a film version of Stephen Sondheim's 1962 Broadway musical, which combines the plot of three comedies by Plautus ( The Haunted House, Pseudolus, and Casina) . Although this film does not use The Swaggering Soldier as a source it still has much in common with that play: in the film there is a soldier (called Miles Gloriosus), Pseudolus is a clever slave like Palaestrio, and the plot revolves around the clever slave getting a prostitute away from the soldier for his young master. The film, even if not a historically informed production of Roman comedy, nonetheless successfully captures the spirit of that genre. N.B. With a very few exceptions, the translations of The Swaggering Soldier 's text in this lecture are from E.F. Watling's Penguin translation of the play. The remaining few are by the lecture's author.

Dramatis Personae
The Household God of Euclio, the Prologue.
Euclio, an old gentleman of Athens.
Staphyla, his old slave.
Eunomia, a lady of Athens.
Megadorus, an old gentleman of Athens, Eunomia's brother.
Pythodicus, his slave.
Congrio, cook.
Anthrax, cook. Strobilus, slave of Lyconides. Lyconides, a young gentleman of Athens, Eunomia's son. Phaedria, Euclio's daughter. Music Girls. Scene: - Athens. A street on which are the houses of Euclio and Megadorus, a narrow lane between them; in front, an altar. Prologue Spoken by Euclio's Household God That no one may wonder who I am, I shall inform you briefly. I am the household God of that family from whose house you just saw me come. For many years now I have possessed this dwelling, and preserved it for the sire and grandsire of its present occupant. Now this man's grandsire as a suppliant entrusted to me, in utter secrecy, a hoard of gold : he buried it in the centre of the hearth, entreating me to guard it for him. When he died he could not bearso covetous was he to reveal its existence to his own son, and he chose to leave him penniless rather than apprise him of his treasure. Some land, a little only, he did leave him, whereon to toil and moil for a miserable livelihood. After the death of him who had committed the gold to my keeping, I began to observe whether the son would hold me in greater honour than his father had. As a matter of fact, his neglect grew and grew apace, and he showed me less honour. I did the same by him: so he also died. He left a son who occupies this house at present, a man of the same mould as his sire and grandsire. He has one daughter. She prays to me constantly, with daily gifts of incense, or wine, or something: she gives me garlands. Out of regard for her I caused Euclio to discover the treasure here in order that he might the more easily find her a husband, if he wished. For she has been ravished by a young gentleman of very high rank. He knows who it is that he has wronged; who he is she does not know, and as for her father, he is ignorant of the whole affair.

Roman Writer
Titus Maccius Plautus was one of the most prolific comic dramatists of ancient Rome, but only 21of his comdies survived. Plautus' farcial humor and control of the Latin language rank him as Rome's greatest comic playwright. Later playwrights used some of his plays in their own works, like Shakespeare's 'Comedy of Errors' is based on Plautus' play 'Menaechmi'. www link :

The Theater of Plautus
Playing to the Audience By Timothy J. Moore
"I consider this the best full-length discussion of Plautine metatheater in existence.... The author talks lucidly about Plautus in terms that the modern student of dramatic literature can grasp, even without knowledge of Plautus.... In short, this is a major contribution to theory about Roman drama and to an understanding of Plautus." The relationship between actors and spectators has been of perennial interest to playwrights. The Roman playwright Plautus (ca. 200 BCE) was particularly adept at manipulating this relationship. Plautus allowed his actors to acknowledge freely the illusion in which they were taking part, to elicit laughter through humorous asides and monologues, and simultaneously to flatter and tease the spectators. These metatheatrical techniques are the focus of Timothy J. Moore's innovative study of the comedies of Plautus. The first part of the book examines Plautus' techniques in detail, while the second part explores how he used them in the plays Pseudolus Amphitruo Curculio Truculentus Casina , and Captivi . Moore shows that Plautus employed these dramatic devices not only to entertain his audience but also to satirize aspects of Roman society, such as shady business practices and extravagant spending on prostitutes, and to challenge his spectators' preconceptions about such issues as marriage and slavery. These findings forge new links between Roman comedy and the social and historical context of its performance.

Titus Maccius Plautus
From LoveToKnow 1911
TITUS MACCIUS PLAUTUS (originally perhaps Maccus ; cf. Asin. Prol. 11), the great comic dramatist of ancient Rome , was born at Sarsina in Umbria according to the testimony of Festus , who calls him Umber Sarsinas, and Jerome. The date of his death was 184 B.C. (Cicero, Brutus xv. 60). The date of his birth depends upon an inference based on the statement of Cicero De senectute, xiv. 50) that he was an old man when he wrote his Truculentus and Pseudolus. The latter play was 1 Some doubt has been expressed as to whether the eggs are extruded or hatched within the body.

Metcalfe, who had lived many years in a region inhabited by these * animals. He had made special inquiries of the authorities of the Sydney Melbourne Brisbane and Hobart museums, and published questions in the newspapers , but no evidence has reached him that the eggs of Ornithorhyncus have ever been obtained except by the dissection of the mother. Mr Thomas laid stress on what had been advanced on the other side by Mr Caldwell (

    Guiding Strangers through Rome - Plautus, Propertius,
    Vergil, Ovid, Ammianus Marcellinus, and Petrarch
    Ulrich Schmitzer
    Erlangen Is there any traveller who has not had reason to sigh like this: "The guides were going through their prearranged program, paying no heed to us who begged that they would cut short these harangues and their expounding of most of the inscriptions". However, this is not the com-plaint of an angry customer who has written a letter to his travel agency in order to get a refund. No, it is the expression of displeasure uttered some 1900 years ago by Plutarch, the priest at the oracle of Delphi. Living at this focus of ancient tourism, he had to watch the periegetai , as they were called in Greek , every day and got angry at their shameless behavior and vain words. One can gather from the scattered testimonia that those periegetai were to be met in every place, where tourists or pilgrims could be expected. They were so prevalent that it was not considered unreasonable to fear that one could not escape from them even in the Underworld, as Lucian tells us.

    change Biography
    Little is known about Plautus' early life. In the early years of Plautus’ life he worked as a stage-builder or scene-changer. This might have been where his love of the theater came from. His talent as an actor was soon discovered. He called himself "Macchius" (a clownish character in popular farces), and "Plautus" (a term meaning "flat-footed"). Tradition also says that he eventually made enough money to go into the shipping business. He started something, but was not successful. He then is said to have worked as someone who worked with his hands. He learned about Greek drama — particularly the New Comedy of Menander — in his free time. His studies led to his plays being shown. The plays were first shown between c. 205 BC and 184 BC. Plautus' comedies are mostly adaptations of Greek plays for Roman people. They are usually based on the works of the Greek playwrights.

    251 B.C. - 184 B.C. Titus Maccius Plautus's birth appears to have been no later than 251 B.C. in Sarsina, a town of three thousand in Umbria. He died in or around 184 B.C. and his epitaph from his tombstone is known to us. His life began surrounded by theater in one fashion or another. As a youth he worked as a handyman in the theater and progressed to acting. Plautus was fairly successful in theater. After his acting career, Plautus worked in several arenas. He was a merchant and also a moneylender. It was as a moneylender that he lost his wealth and became bankrupt. After this financial disaster and during the Second Punic War, he served in the Roman Army for a period of six years. Upon his return to Rome, Plautus, being too old to act, became a very popular dramatist. During this time he wrote the Saturio and the Addictus, among others. His plays could be seen in production long after his death. There has been much confusion in the past about which plays were actually Plautus' and which were imitators. It has been stated that Plautus had a habit of "touching up" plays written by others, which would lead to confusion. Later playwrights began to use some of his plays in their own plays. Menaechmi is the play on which Shakespeare based his own work Comedy of Errors.

    Aristophanes and Plautus
    From the beginning of time women have been seen as inferior to men. Since creation to present day, females have been denied rights, mistreated and held unaccountable for complex thought and reasoning. The views of women held by the citizens of each historical period and generation has been depicted in the literature from that time. The role of the women in the Bible was to be man’s helper and this idea traveled from generation to generation. In ancient civilizations women were still seen as servants to their husbands and having a lack of intelligence and reason. Two playwrights from the ancient civilizations of Greece and Rome keyed into this aspect of human relationships. Although the plight of women may have improved from the Greek world to the Roman world, it is not evident in the plays written by famous authors, Aristophanes and Plautus. The literature from these two men holds the same, condescending view that women were servants and incapable of more than domesti!
