Recent English translations of Plautus are: by Paul Nixon in the Loeb Classical Library (2 volumes issued); by E. H. Sugden of _Amphitruo_, _Asinaria_, _Aulularia_, _Bacchides_, _Captivi_, London, 1893; by H. O. Sibley and F. Smalley of _Trinummus_, Syracuse, N. Y., 1895; by B. H. Clark of _Menæchmi_, New York, 1915. W. H. D. Rouse has reprinted William Warner’s Elizabethan translation of _Menæchmi_ with the Latin text for the study of Shakspere’s _Comedy of Errors_, London, 1912. A second edition of F. Leo’s _Plautinische Forschungen zur Kritik und Geschichte der Komödie_ appeared in Berlin, 1912. More recent studies are: Brasse, M., _Quatenus in fabulis Plautinis et loci et temporis unitatibus species veritatis neglegatur_ ... Greifswald, 1914 (Breslau thesis); Schild, Erich, _Die dramaturgische Rolle der Sklaven bei Plautus und Terenz_, Basel (thesis), 1917; Blancké, W. W., _The dramatic values in Plautus_, Geneva, N. Y., 1918 (Pennsylvania thesis); Cole, Mrs. H. E., _Deception in Plautus_, a study in the technique of Roman comedy, with bibliography, Boston, 1920 (Bryn Mawr thesis). A complete translation of Terence was privately printed for the Roman Society, 1900, 2 volumes, with brief notes and partial bibliography. The most useful available translation is that of the _Phormio_ by M. H. Morgan, Cambridge, Mass., 1894, with the Latin text and reproductions of the Vatican miniatures of costumes. This play has been translated also by Clark, B. H., New York, 1915; _The Self-tormentor_, by Shuckburgh, E. S., Cambridge, 1869, and by Ricord, F. W., New York, 1885. The Loeb Classical Library publishes the translation of John Sargeaunt in 2 volumes. See also Michaut, G., _Sur les tréteaux latins (histoire de la comédie romaine)_, Paris, 1912; Knapp, C., _References in Plautus and Terence to plays, players and playwrights_, Classical Philology, xiv, number 1 (Jan., 1919); and a charming popular study by Lemaître, J., “Térence et Molière,” in _Impressions de théâtre_, vi (1898) 15-27. The better to define ancient conceptions of comedy, Lane Cooper reconstitutes _An Aristotelian Theory of Comedy, with an adaptation of the Poetics and a translation of the ‘Tractatus Coislinianus,’_ New York, 1922. [25] See the quotation from Apuleius on page 228. The _Onomasticon_ of Julius Pollux enumerates 44 masks sufficient for all the rôles and all the situations of the New Comedy: 10 for old men, 10 for young men, 7 for slaves, 3 for old women, 14 for young women. There are even stock names, e.g., Davos and Chremes. _Miles gloriosus_ was taken over by Latin comedy and again by French seventeenth-century comedy, though in fact neither society had this Athenian type. Over against him is the parasite, often the mover of the intrigue. The slave and he are the most active of the _personæ_. (This note is derived from Lallier.)
