Its dissimilarity to all other Roman comedies, its ambiguous genre (a tragicomoedia, says the Prologue), the baffling question of its source (suggestions ranging from Middle Comedy to the drama of Magna Graecia), the inconsistency of its action (conception of Heracles and birth in the same time period), its unique stage requirements (a second storey, not found otherwise in comedy), the possibility that one scene (551-632) takes place at a different location (if true, a feature unexampled elsewhere in Roman comedy),' the attribution of a nearby port to Thebes, and even some astronomical confusion about the time of night (dusk or approaching dawn)2-these and many other problems have led to vigorous debate and widely divergent conclusions, all the more firmly held because, as Ernout observed of one set of them, some are insoluble.3 Many of the discussions have clarified patterns of structure and details of humor even when not solving the larger questions. If a relationship to Euripides' Bacchae can be shown, for example, then the name of the ancilla, Bromia, is a comic touch that would otherwise be missed.4 I dealt in detail with many of these questions and others long ago in an article which traced the dependence of parts of the Amphitruo on Euripides' Bacchae.

At the climax of his speech he raises a series of alternatives, only to reject each one. At first glance these questions may appear to be merely a familiar rhetorical topos.1 But a closer examination will reveal that Sallust here is making specific allusion to the Medea of Euripides, the Medea of Ennius, and Catullus 64, whose close relationship has been established and discussed.2 Sallust deliberately portrays Adherbal in a situation that is similar to that","PeriodicalId":81378,"journal":{"name":"Harvard studies in classical philology","volume":"100 1","pages":"311-326"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2307/3185222","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69008022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
