Description

Description

The historical events of his time do not concern Menander at all in his work. Foolish young men, grumpy old men, silly girls, cunning slaves, kind-hearted courtesans, and arrogant soldiers, indifferent to the surrounding socio-historical evolution, are absorbed in their love affairs and petty interests.

The poet understands them with leniency and attributes most of their mistakes to adverse conditions or blind Fortune. A citizen of a decaying Athens, foreign to the old hegemonic notions of his city, a hedonist himself and profoundly skeptical, Menander appears philosophically tolerant of the human gallery of his time.
