Menander Of Laodicea: A Rhetor In Context

This was demonstrably not a stagnant period: the production of commentaries on rhetorical textbooks (not attested before Porphyry) is itself a significant innovation. The evidence for this little-known period, though fragmentary and indirect, is more extensive and revealing than generally realised; systematic study will help identify elements of continuity and change. f How did the teaching of rhetoric relate to the broader intellectual and cultural context?

Extractions: Malcolm Heath [This is the text (and accompanying handout) of a paper given at the AGM of the Classical Association in Nottingham, April 1996; it gives an initial report on a more extensive research project into ancient rhetorical commentaries on Demosthenes. Comments are welcome: e-mail to m.f.heath@leeds.ac.uk Menander Rhetor: the true story 'Der Autor ist anscheinend ein armer Teufel' (Radermacher) At some time in the fifth-century AD an Egyptian lawyer called Victor wrote to a colleague asking him to return urgently a book the latter had borrowed - a request which will perhaps excite a feeling of solidarity with many of us. (The letter is [T2] in the collection of testiominia which follows.) The book in question is a commentary on Demosthenes by one Claudius Alexander. There is a passing reference to a sophist called Claudius Alexander in the Suda , and an Alexander is cited twice in the Demosthenes scholia. But that is the sum total of our knowledge about him. Then as an afterthought (in the papyrus there is a space, and the message spills over onto the reverse of the letter) Victor mentions some other books: Menander's Art (quickly!) and also his

Extractions: Translated by W. G. Arnott Menander, the dominant figure in New Comedy, wrote over 100 plays. By the Middle Ages they had all been lost. Happily papyrus finds in Egypt during the past century have recovered one complete play, substantial portions of six others, and smaller but still interesting fragments. Menander was highly regarded in antiquity and his plots, set in Greece, were adapted for the Roman world by Plautus and Terence. Geoffrey Arnott's new Loeb edition is in three volumes. Volume I contains six plays, including the only complete one extant, Dyskolos (The Peevish Fellow), which won first prize in Athens in 317 B.C., and Dis Expaton (Twice a Swindler), the original of Plautus' Two Bacchises Volume II contains the surviving portions of ten Menander plays. Among these are the recently published fragments of Misoumenos ("The Man She Hated"), which sympathetically presents the flawed relationship of a soldier and a captive girl; and the surviving half of Perikeiromene ("The Girl with Her Hair Cut Short"), a comedy of mistaken identity and lovers' quarrel.

Extractions: Edited and Translated by W. G. Arnott This volume completes the Loeb Classical Library's new edition of the leading writer of New Comedy. W. G. Arnott, an internationally recognized Menander expert, provides a Greek text based on careful study of recently discovered papyri, a facing translation that is lucid and fits today's tastes, and full explanatory notes. So influential in antiquityhis plays were adapted for the Roman stage by Plautus and TerenceMenander's comic art can now be fully known and enjoyed. It is a comedy that focuses on the hazards of love and trials of family life. This volume begins with Samia (The Woman from Samos), which has come down to us nearly complete. Here too are the very substantial extant portions of Sikyonioi (The Sicyonians) and Phasma (The Apparition) as well as Synaristosai (Women Lunching Together), on which Plautus's Cistellaria (The Casket Comedy) was based. The volume also includes a selection of papyrus fragments attributed to Menander. Arnott's edition of the great Hellenistic playwright has been garnering wide praise for making these fragmentary texts more accessible to readers, elucidating their dramatic movement. In the words of David Konstan (writing in Scholia Reviews): "An excellent guide to Menander...Arnott has given us fine texts, clear translations, brief and useful introductions."

Seven of his plays were adapted by Plautus and Terence See studies by T. B. L. Webster (1960, 1974, 1975), A. W. Gomme and F. H. Sandbach (1973).

Extractions: This Roman herm depicts the Greek comic playwright Menander , who lived from about 342 to 291 B.C. The herm reproduces the head of a lost Greek bronze portrait statue by Kephisodotos the Younger and Timarchos, the sons of the artist Praxiteles. The Roman writer Pausanias mentions the original Greek bronze statue, which was set up in the Theater of Dionysos in Athens shortly after Menander's death. The middle-aged man shown in this portrait is known from several other versions of the statue, and the occasional example inscribed with his name confirms the identification of all of these versions as Menander. His plays enjoyed a resurgence of popularity in the Roman period, creating a demand for portraits of him. Beginning in the 500s B.C., Greeks placed herms, pillars surmounted by a head of the god Hermes , at physical boundaries, such as crossroads or even doorways. Such places were sites of ritual and worship where the herms served a magical, protective function. The Romans later adapted the Greek concept of the herm, using it for non-religious, decorative purposes. The heads on Roman herms are often portraits of famous people.

Extractions: MENANDER (480-405 B.C.) A fter the Macedonian conquest Greek comedy moved away from the daring personal and political satire of Aristophanes . Lacking complete political independence, writers of this New Comedy found themselves moving towards safer more mundane subject matter. They found their inspiration in the daily life of Athens. Their characters were drawn from the cooks merchants farmers and slaves of the city. According to ancient report, the most gifted of these new writers was Menander Menander, the child of a distinguished family, wrote more than plays during a career that spanned about thirty-three years. He was known for the delicacy and truthfulness of his characterizations, and his poetic style was often mentioned in the same breath as Homer's . Although he won first prize at only eight festivals, he did much to move comedy towards a more realistic representation of human life. Menander's characters spoke in the contemporary dialect and concerned themselves not with the great myths of the past , but rather with the everyday affairs of the people of Athens. His plots revolved around young boys

Extractions: free issue back issues subscribe Athena Review Image Archive Ulpia Oescus: mosaic of "The Achaeans of Menander" Near the Temple of Fortuna at Roman Oescus is a building which contains a colorful floor mosaic, dated to the time of the emperor Septimus Severus (AD 193-211). In the center is a theatrical scene showing three masked participants and one man without a mask. On the white background, over the figures, is the inscription "Achaeans of Menander" ([M]ENANDROU AXAIOI; figs.1), referring to a lost work by Menander (342-291 BC), the famous Athenian comic playwright. His comedy "The Achaeans" was unknown prior to the 1948 discovery of this inscription. The existence of this play was then confirmed in 1961 by a papyrus from Oxyrhynchus in Egypt (see AR 2,2), containing an alphabetical list of Menander's works. Fig.1: The mosaic of the "Achaeans" by Menander ( after T. Ivanov 1954 Interpretation of the personages in this intriguing masked scene is still unresolved. The name "Achaeans" naturally suggests that they were prominent persons from the Achaean world. As interpreted by T. Ivanov, Menander drew his subject from Book I of the Iliad of Homer, on the quarrel between Agamemnon (the actor on the left) and Achilles (at right) over the damsel Briseis. The old man is Nestor - king of the island of Pylos, who tries to reconcile the men. The young man without a mask is Patroclus - Achilles' true friend who, after the quarrel, accompanied him to the ships of the Myrmidons.
