Pseudolus, the most Plautine of Plautus' plays, is his masterpiece. Rudens may be better constructed, Bacchides more Menandiran, Casina more broadly funny, but for the special qualities of Plautus: wit, vigour, invention, the charm of low life characters, Pseudolus is supreme. M.M. Willcock's edition, the first in English for over fifty years, remains one of the most concise yet thorough editions of Plautine work available to students coming to a Roman play for the first time. This book contains the Latin text of Plautus's Pseudolus, with a detailed introduction which provides all the basic information needed to tackle the text. It includes sections on Greek new comedy, figures of language and thought and the presentation of the text. The commentary helps with content and language. It also includes a bibliography, extensive notes and a metrical appendix. .
