Deception, disguise, and domestic conflict unfold as the old man’s schemes are cleverly thwarted by his wife. Likely one of Plautus’s later works, 'Casina' offers both linguistic challenge and comic brilliance, making it ideal for classroom use or independent study. This edition features the complete Latin text of the play, richly annotated with grammatical and vocabulary notes to support comprehension. A clear prose translation accompanies the original, offering accessible insight into the humor and intrigue of the play. The introduction provides historical and cultural context, situating the farce within ancient Athenian and Roman comedic traditions. This volume is designed for students with intermediate Latin skills who wish to engage directly with Plautus’s lively comic play. 04 00 Acknowledgments Introduction Helpful Information for Reading the Latin Text Casina (Annotated Latin Text) Casina (in Translation) ARGVMENTVM (Plot Summary) Works Cited Index 20 00 Open Access Open Book Publishers 01 Open Book Publishers Cambridge, UK 04 01 20250828 13 15 9781805116745 09 Open Book Publishers 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://www.openbookpublishers.com/books/10.11647/OBP.0482 99 01 09 Open Book Publishers 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.openbookpublishers.com/10.11647/obp.0482.pdf 99 01
