«Anfitrione. Testo latino a fronte» is Plautus's comedy, published by Rizzoli in paperback (224 pages, in Italian).
Jupiter takes on the appearance of the general Amphitryon to visit his wife Alcmena, and Mercury passes himself off as the servant Sosia. A chain of mistaken identities and questions of fidelity unfolds, which Plautus, in this tragicomedy, turns into a play of appearances that inspired Molière and Kleist.
Edition with the Latin text facing the translation, translated by Mario Scàndola, introduction by Guido Paduano and preface by Cesare Questa; BUR Classici greci e latini collection.
Recommended for students of Latin and classical literature, as well as for readers interested in Roman theatre and the theme of the double.
