Euripide padre della commedia nuova? A proposito di Satiro, Vit.Eur. P.Oxy. 1167, fr. 39 col. VII e di altre testimonianze antiche
New edition with commentary of Satyrus, V.Eur. P.Oxy. 1167, fr. 39, col. VII. Satyrus does not anticipate the modern theory that Euripides' romantic tragedies are the starting point of late comic theatre and that Euripides, therefore, is the father of the New Comedy. Rather, in a speech entirely devoted to the use by both Euripides and the comic poets of real-life situations, Satyrus is just noting that Euripides dealt with everyday matters at the highest levels.
