«El soldat fanfarró» is Plautus's comedy, published by La Magrana in paperback (144 pages, in Catalan).
In Ephesus, the braggart soldier Pyrgopolinices holds captive Philocomasium, the beloved of the young Pleusicles. To free her, the slave Palestrio devises a trick: making the soldier believe that the courtesan Acroteleutium, who poses as the wife of an elderly neighbor, is in love with him. The soldier's vanity does the rest.
It is part of the Clàssics de Grècia i Roma collection. The 2012 edition includes an introduction by Joan Carbonell and translation and notes by Montserrat Llarena.
Recommended for readers interested in classical theater and Roman comedy, from age 16.
