Abstract

Greek comedy, especially New Comedy, contains many incidental descriptions of domestic interiors. This article argues that such descriptions constitute a valuable and overlooked source of evidence for historians of the classical Greek house; they are also of interest to literary critics in that they contribute to the thematic and conceptual meaning of the plays. The article presents and discusses all the surviving comic evidence for houses, including many previously neglected comic fragments, as well as a key scene from Menander's Samia which is more detailed than any other surviving literary depiction.

家庭喜剧和古典希腊戏剧

希腊喜剧，尤其是新喜剧，包含了许多关于家庭内部的偶然描述。这篇文章认为，这样的描述构成了一个有价值和被忽视的证据来源，为历史学家的古典希腊房子；它们也引起了文学评论家的兴趣，因为它们有助于戏剧的主题和概念意义。这篇文章介绍并讨论了所有幸存的房屋漫画证据，包括许多以前被忽视的漫画片段，以及梅南德的《萨米亚》中的一个关键场景，该场景比任何其他幸存的文学描述都更详细。
