The Italian-language volume offers a commentary on the fragments and testimonies of twelve Greek comedy poets of the 4th century BC: Kalliades, Kallikrates, Klearchus, Kratinos the Younger, Krobylos, Heniochos, Herakleides, Eubulides, Euphanes, Euthias, Euthykles and Mnesimachos. The selection represents a representative cross-section and makes it possible to shed light on the development of the comedy genre, the themes and the motifs in comparison to the preceding and following comedy production. The mockery of some schools of philosophy, especially the followers of Pythagoras, parody of myths, the presence of 'stock characters' such as the sullen, the glutton, the hetaera or the cook, the mockery of strangers because of their customs, habits and certain linguistic features are constitutive features Recognize special features, catalogs of dishes and the associated erotic ambiguities. By commenting on these comedy poets, the communis opinio could be refuted that the comedy of the 4th century BC Was disinterested in political, current issues.
