The series ‘Fragmenta Comica’ will provide a complete commentary on the fragments of Greek comedy. The aim of the commentary is twofold: on the one hand, it is meant to make accessible these mostly rather challenging texts from a number of different perspectives. On the other hand, it should help in the reconstruction the plays where this is possible, as well as in achieving a literary-historical classification of the authors. The fragments and testimonia will be translated. The results obtained in the commentary will be integrated into general surveys published in the Studia Comica series: on comedy and comedy techniques such as parody and satire as well as on its political function. The project is planned to take fifteen years to complete.
Athina Papachrysostomou is Associate Professor of Ancient Greek Literature at the University of Patras, Greece. She specializes in Greek comedy. Beyond Greek comedy, her research interests extend to Athenian democracy, Thucydides and Greek political thought, Greek tragedy and textual criticism.
