Zusammenfassung

What has happened to scholarship on Plautus? Why is there so little of it? These questions must lurk behind any reaction - particularly from someone working in Great Britain or the United States - to Plautus Barbarus, a study of six plays (Asinaria, Curculio, Mostellaria, Persa, Stichus, Truculentus) in which L-S-V, taking two plays each, emphasise the contribution of popular, mimic theatre to Plautine drama. In these six plays, so the argument goes, Plautus followed an Attic original either minimally or (Asin., Truc.) not at all.
