Aulularia is one of the most famous comedies by the Latin playwright Plautus, focusing on the figure of Euclio, a miserly old man who finds a pot of gold and lives in constant paranoia of losing it. This edition by Prosopon presents the work in Catalan, allowing readers to enjoy the entanglements, satire, and archetypal characters that have influenced great works of world literature such as Molière's The Miser.
Titus Maccius Plautus was a Roman playwright of the Old Latin period. His comedies are the earliest Latin literary works to have survived in their entirety. He wrote Palliata comoedia, the genre devised by Livius Andronicus, the innovator of Latin literature. The word Plautine refers to both Plautus's own works and works similar to or influenced by his. He influenced some of the greatest figures in literature, including Shakespeare and Molière.
