Menander: The Principal Fragments is a book written by Francis G. Allinson. It is a collection of the surviving fragments of Menander's plays, which were written in ancient Greece during the 4th century BC. Menander was a celebrated playwright of his time, known for his witty and insightful observations of human behavior and his ability to capture the complexities of everyday life. The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides an introduction to Menander's life and work, as well as a brief history of Greek theater. The second part is a collection of Menander's fragments, organized by play. Each fragment is accompanied by a translation and a commentary that provides context and analysis of the text. The book is intended for scholars and students of ancient Greek literature, as well as anyone interested in the history of theater and the evolution of drama. It offers a comprehensive look at Menander's work and provides valuable insights into the social and cultural context in which he wrote.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
