Originally published in 1901, this book contains the original Greek text of the Aristophanic comedy The Knights. Neil provides running commentary on the play, as well as several appendices, including an examination of the origins and role of the Greek particle γε, which is often glossed over by scholars and translators. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in ancient Greek theatre or ancient satire.
