McCarthy, Kathleen
SLAVES, MASTERS, AND THE ART OF AUTHORITY IN PLAUTINE COMEDY
Scholars' bookplate to inner cover. Very light bumping to corners. DJ has light creasing and shelf wear. ; What pleasures did Plautus' heroic tricksters provide their original audience? How should we understand the compelling mix of rebellion and social conservatism that Plautus offers? Through a close reading of four plays representing the full range of his work (Menaechmi, Casina, Persa, and Captivi) , Kathleen McCarthy develops an innovative model of Plautine comedy and its social effects. She concentrates on how the plays are shaped by the interaction of two comic modes: the socially conservative mode of naturalism and the potentially subversive mode of farce. It is precisely this balance of the naturalistic and the farcical that allows everyone in the audience--especially those well placed in the social hierarchy--to identify both with and against the rebel, to feel both the thrill of being a clever underdog and the complacency of being a securely ensconced authority figure. ; 240 pages

MIRBEAU (Octave).
Le Foyer comédie en trois actes... avec l’acte supprimé à la représentation.
Paris, Charpentier, Paris, Charpentier1909 ; in-12, broché, couverture imprimée. 3 ff., 320 pp.Cette comédie en trois actes fut écrite en 1906 en collaboration avec Thadée Natanson. Mais Le Foyer ne fut représenté pour la première fois à la Comédie Française que le 7 décembre 1908, après que J. Claretie l’avait déprogrammé et tenté d’apporter des changements à ce brûlot afin d’éviter le scandale que la pièce ne manqua pas de provoquer. Cette comédie de mœurs qui dénonce l’hypocrisie et la concupiscence de la bourgeoisie et du monde politique fit grand scandale, plusieurs représentations furent interrompues par des groupes d’extrême droite.ENVOI AUTOGRAPHE SIGNÉ PAR LES DEUX AUTEURS à Marcel Barrine.
