On the knowledge of Plautus and Terentius in Italy and Spain in the 15th century
Keywords:
Plautus, Terence, Italy, Spain.
Abstract
The comedies of Terence and, to a lesser extent, Plautus were used throughout the 14th and 15th centuries to learn Latin. While for the Italian peninsula the information we have about this way of teaching is considerable, very little data are preserved for Spain -although many scholars keep repeating that classical Latin comedies were also studied there. The main objective of this paper is, therefore, the review of a number of studies that have dealt with this matter and propose a more cautious approach to future researchers wishing to address this issue.Downloads
