The Oxford Handbook of Greek and Roman Comedy marks the first comprehensive introduction

to and reference work for the unified study of ancient comedy. From the birth of comedy

in Greece to its end in Rome, from the Hellenistic diffusion of performances after the death of Menander

to its artistic, scholarly, and literary receptions in the later Roman Empire,

no topic is neglected.

41 essays spread across Greek Comedy, Roman Comedy, and the transmission and reception

of Ancient comedy by an international team of experts offer cutting-edge guides

through the immense terrain of the field.
