Languages of Aristophanes

Auteur: Willi, Andreas (Diebold Professor of Comparative Philology, University of Oxford)
Editeur: Oxford University Press
The play with linguistic styles constitutes an important ingredient of Aristophanic humour. Andreas Willi uses the stylistic diversity as a source to reconstruct the 'real' styles upon which Aristophanes based his text. Most of these 'real' styles would otherwise be lost because they are not represented in serious literature.
