Descrizione

Scholars have recognized in Aristophanes’ comedies a few passages written in prose: these are the traditional extra metrum sentences or interjections, prayers and loyal texts such as decrees (real or fictitious). A new analysis of these passages implies an evaluation of the prose’s layout in the manuscripts and a re-consideration of ancient or triclinian scholia. The ancient commentaries recognize verses composed with the aim to imitate prose. The actual metrical analysis of such passages shows a multishaped versification, so that the public loses the recurrency of well known verses, that is the characteristic attributed to the prose in comparison with poetry in ancient theory.
