Antiphanes is one of the most important writers of the Middle Attic comedy. His plays deal with matters connected to mythological subjects, although others referenced particular professional and national persons or characters, while other plays focused on the intrigues of personal life. This volume contains a critical text, translation and complete philological, literary and historical commentary on the fragments of Antiphanes’ Sappho and subsequent plays, along with the fragments without a play-title (including dubia).

S. Douglas Olson is Distinguished McKnight University Professor in the Department of Classical and Near Eastern Studies at the University of Minnesota, and a Visiting Professor at Bilkent University in Ankara.
