I ordered this for my son for one of his college classes. Shipping was quick and exactly what he needed!

A play for those who enjoy Roman theater

The commentary is very helpful as it explains words that may have different meanings in Latin prose. It also explains how the grammar is evolving at that point in Roman history. It is the best play that Terence has ever written and it is definitely worth reading it in the original language.
