This article argues that a close reading of friendship practices in the
- plays of Plautus, in light of the relevant social science and anthropological literature
- on friendship, can help us establish the parameters, discourse, and behaviors
- associated with Roman friendship. Application of a new analytical framework
- for studying such relationships in ancient literature (a “processual model of
- friendship interaction”) to the plays of Plautus increases our understanding of
- Roman amicitia in that it marks the relationship as a precious and all too rare
- social bond, fraught with paradox and ambivalence, and generative of tensions,
- anxieties, and asymmetries.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block" border="0"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/220000.html">220000 Social Sciences, Humanities and Arts - General</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/430000.html">430000 History and Archaeology</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/420000.html">420000 Language and Culture</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">2405</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">Dr Paul Burton</span></span></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited On:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">08 Nov 2007 15:20</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Last Modified:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">09 Jan 2008 02:30</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ePrint Statistics:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a target="ePrintStats" href="/es/index.php?action=show_detail_eprint;id=2405;">View statistics for this ePrint</a></td></tr></table><p align="right">Repository Staff Only: <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/cgi/users/home?screen=EPrint::View&eprintid=2405">item control page</a></p>
