Today on: things I did not expect to see on a text over 2,000 years old.
A conversation between a blasphemous pimp and a soldier who is making up a story about having killed six thousand flying men by knocking them down and stabbing their brain with their own feathers...
Plautus, you really would have loved the Monty Python...
So far, I'm having a blast translating Plautus. He just makes up words (Are these Aristophanes' vibes??), is constantly making jokes about the audience and in doing so, he allows us to glimpse into what going to see a play in Rome was like!
My only complain is having a mini heart-attack after seeing a greek word in the middle of a verse (luckily for me, it was just one).
Starting to translate the prologue of Poenulus, Plautus is definitely different from Tacitus... this is going to be either really fun or a complete nightmare.
