<em>Pseudolus</em>, un doppio gioco onomastico. Alcune considerazioni sul lessico dell’inganno in Plauto

  • Plauto,
  • Pseudolus’ name

Abstract

The word dolus recurs very often in this play: this appears to support Pascucci’s view on the name Pseudolus as a nomen agentis, in which -olus did not evolve into -ulus for the very sake of a word play with dolus.
