Terence between Late Antiquity and the Age of Printing investigates the Medieval and Early Renaissance reception of Terence in highly innovative ways, combining the diverse but interrelated strands of textual criticism, illustrative tradition, and performance. The plays of Terence seem to have remained unperformed until the Renaissance, but they were a central text for educators in Western Europe. Manuscripts of the plays contained scholarship and illustrations which were initially inspired by Late Antique models, and which were constantly transformed in response to contemporary thought. The contributions in this work deal with these topics, as well as the earliest printed editions of Terence, theatrical revivals in Northern Italy, and the readership of Terence throughout the Early Middle Ages. Contributors are: James H. Kim On Chong-Gossard, Chrysanthi Demetriou, Gianni Guastella, Salvatore Monda, Bernard J. Muir, Beatrice Radden Keefe, Giulia Torello-Hill, Andrew J. Turner and Claudia Villa. --
