EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title cover of Terence's comedies, a precious relic from the classical world of ancient Rome. Terence, whose full name was Publius Terentius Afer, was born around 195-159 BC in Carthage, North Africa, during the Roman Republic. He is considered one of the three great Roman comic playwrights, along with Plautus and Cicero. The title cover depicts Terence's name prominently displayed, surrounded by intricate ornamental designs and the Latin inscription "Terentii Africani Comedias," which translates to "The Comedies of Terence the African." The cover is a testament to the enduring appeal of Terence's works, which continue to be read and performed around the world more than two millennia after they were first written. This particular edition of Terence's comedies was compiled by Elio Donato in the 4th century AD. The print dates back to 1518, making it a valuable historical artifact that offers a glimpse into the rich literary heritage of the ancient world. The title cover is a beautiful example of the intricate design and craftsmanship that characterized the printing press during the Renaissance period. Terence's comedies were influential in shaping the development of Western literature and continue to be studied and admired for their wit, humor, and insight into human nature. This print is not only a testament to Terence's enduring legacy but also a reminder of the power of literature to transcend time and captivate audiences across generations.
