Laughter on the Fringes: The Reception of Old Comedy in the Imperial Greek World
Peterson, Anna (Assistant Professor of Classics and Mediterranean Studies, Assistant Professor of Classics and Mediterranean Studies, Penn State University)
This book examines the reception of Athenian Old Comedy by Greek writers of the imperial era. It explores how the major authors of this period (Plutarch, Aelius Aristides, Lucian, Alciphron, and Libanius) adopted aspects of the genre to negotiate power struggles, facilitate rivalries, and provide a model for autobiographical writing.
