Giuseppe Pezzini is preparing an edition of the Self-Tormentor by Terence, for centuries a most popular Latin playwright. An African by birth, Terence’s work is an early attempt at providing Rome with a literature to compete with Greece’s, as well as containing brilliant character portrayals and raising universal questions about the relationship between generations and cultures.
