Studies In The Word Play In Plautus: The Name Play And The Use Of Single Words In A Double Meaning is a book written by Charles Jastrow Mendelsohn in 1907. The book explores the use of wordplay in the works of the ancient Roman playwright Plautus. Specifically, Mendelsohn focuses on two types of wordplay: name play and the use of single words with double meanings. Mendelsohn analyzes numerous examples of these types of wordplay in Plautus' plays and provides detailed explanations of their significance in the context of the plays. The book is intended for scholars and students of Latin literature and provides a valuable insight into the use of wordplay in ancient Roman theater.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
