82. Roman Meals:  Potes Esurire Mecum the same name and to have been separated for many years much of the plot revolvesaround the preparation of a prandium for the local menaechmus, his mistress http://www.class.uidaho.edu/luschnig/owl's/Recipes/8.htm

Potes esurire mecum "Come Starve with Me" [Martial] When we imagine ancient Roman cooking and eating habits, we picture too readily the pagan gorging orgies of imperial times, with their casts of thousands, or of the poisoning of Claudius with his favorite food [which his successor Nero later openly called deorum cibum , Suetonius, Nero The principal meal of the Roman day, the cena was taken about 3:00 in the afternoon, though it sometimes lasted until the small hours of the morning: we are told by Suetonius [ Nero 27] that Nero dined a medio die ad mediam noctem . When we arrive at our host's home we will remove our shoes and have our feet washed. When we have been escorted into the dining hall, we will not sit of course: a recumbent position was considered the only proper posture for a free Roman gentleman at table. Cato of Utica, that austere [if not quite uncompromising] old Republican, made a vow which he kept until the day of his suicide, to eat in a chair for as long as Julius Caesar remained in power. [Plutarch, Cato Minor Once we have assumed our positions at table, what we will be served and how we will be entertained will, of course, depend upon the cultural priorities and financial resources of our host. Descriptions of meals in the ancient world abound: from the formulaic feasts of Homer to the

Madness in Two Plautine Comedies James Staub CLAS 397 November 10, 1997 The madnesses of Ajax, Heracles, and Orestes have survived in the extant works of ancient tragedies. These insanities are represented much as they are experienced by the hero's they afflictas something which doesn't make sense, which challenges the boundaries of the hero's life and self-concept. The story of madness on the tragic stage is essentially one told from within. The phantom furies which signify Orestes' hallucinations are seen onstage by the entire audience in the Euminedes; the sensitivity of Sophocles to Ajax's plight allows for the hero's beautiful speeches which reveal his newfound (and self-destructive) complexity. Madness is at its core tragic. In its boundary-confusion, insanity comes close to fulfilling Bernard Knox's definition of tragedy: "the rejection of all normal standards of success, of all conforting moralities, the naked exposure of the fault of all things." As such, it is no surprise that there are no representations of authentic madness in extant ancient comedy. Aristophanes' portrait of Philocleon (Wasps) and his obsession with attending the Athenian law courts is as crazy as they get, and yet "madness" in this case is best understood as an exaggerated metaphor used to deliver the poet's criticism of Athenian political life with sufficient force. Comedy can only exploit madness for what is funny in it, and therefore must only explore the "external" vestiges of insanitythat is, what is done to and thought about the insane by others. As such, Aristophanes' comedy by itself offers the modern reader more clues about the specific treatments given to the mentally ill in ancient Athens than the entire batallion of "internally oriented" tragedies focusing on Greece's favorite "touched" heroes.

ISBN 0-691-04888-6. $45.00. Reviewed by Ariana Traill, University of Colorado at Boulder Word count: 4252 words concessum est in palliata poetis comicis servos dominis sapentiores fingere, quod idem in togata non fere licet Donatus, ad Eun Readers since Donatus have puzzled over the cleverness of the comic slave. Next to an often dim-witted master, the clever slave appears to subvert a relationship of dominance. This has been explained in various ways, most famously by E. Segal, who popularized the idea that comedy offered a period of Saturnalian license, a temporary release for slaves and sons in potestate and a mechanism for the powerful to keep the lower orders in line. In a stimulating new study, Kathleen McCarthy uses detailed analyses of four plays, Menaechmi Casina Persa , and Captivi , to go beyond Segal's "safety-valve" theory and attempt to explain what stake the rich, powerful Romans who funded these plays had in actually watching them and why, more generally, the slave-owners who made up most of the audience enjoyed a form that presented them in an unflattering light. McCarthy offers an answer based on an insight into the psychology of slave-owning: Roman masters themselves felt a need for release, both from the labor of domination and from their own anxieties as "subordinates" in the larger hierarchies of Roman society. The first of these pressures may be universal to slave-owning societies (McCarthy draws on comparative evidence ranging from the East African plantation system to the New World), a consequence of the famous "contradiction of slavery", that is, the notion that the ideal slave should be both an "object", an absolutely obedient instrument of the master's will, and a thinking "subject", able to follow the intent and not just the letter of the command (McCarthy's discussion of the

Bibliography Despite the fact that Roman Comedy was a derivative genre, tracing its origins back to the New Comedy of Greece, the different circumstances of Rome and the existence of native Italian comedy ensured that it soon took on characteristics of its own. The course aims to examine the shifts that took place as Roman playwrights adapted Greek plays and the techniques that made their products a genre in its own right. Following a survey of the more technical factors of play construction, the course will concentrate on the works themselves, examining the types of plot developed, the characters involved and how they are presented, the devices employed to extract humour, together with the differences between Plautine works and those of Terence. By the end of the module you will have gained an in-depth appreciation of the diversity to be found in Roman Comedy a capacity to formulate arguments and to assess critically the interpretations of modern scholars Assessment of the course will consist of two essays plus a two-hour examination in the summer term. The assessment weighting is as follows:
