Titus Maccius Plautus (c. 254 – 184 BC), commonly known as Plautus, was a Roman playwright of the Old Latin period. His comedies are the earliest works in Latin literature to have survived in their entirety. He wrote Palliata comoedia, the genre devised by the innovator of Latin literature, Livius Andronicus. The word Plautine refers to both Plautus's own works and works similar to or influenced by his.
Tiene alguna parte buena pero el argumento no tiene sentido, tiene potencial de hacer una buena comedia con un mensaje moral (como una mezcla entre los Cautivos y alguna más sencilla y graciosa) y lo ha desaprovechado, se centra en un banquete soso, oportunidad desaprovechada.
