«Aulularia» is the comedy by Titus Maccius Plautus, published by Clasicas Ediciones, S.A. in paperback (96 pages, in Spanish).
Euclio, a miserly old man, finds a pot full of gold and from then on lives tormented by hiding and protecting it. The protagonist's extreme behavior turns him into a ridiculous character, while his daughter and the young Lyconides become involved in a romantic tangle full of misunderstandings and situations typical of Latin comedy.
This 1995 edition, from the publisher Ediciones Clásicas, includes the version and direction of Pedro Sáenz Almeida.
A work frequently read in schools, appealing to students of Latin literature and fans of classical theater.
Titus Maccius Plautus was a Roman playwright of the Old Latin period. His comedies are the earliest Latin literary works to have survived in their entirety. He wrote Palliata comoedia, the genre devised by Livius Andronicus, the innovator of Latin literature. The word Plautine refers to both Plautus's own works and works similar to or influenced by his. He influenced some of the greatest figures in literature, including Shakespeare and Molière.
