 Feminine Discourse in Roman Comedy
On Echoes and Voices
Dorota M. Dutsch
Oxford Studies in Classical Literature and Gender Theory
A pioneering study that applies modern discourse analysis to male and female speech in Roman comedy
Links gender differentiation in play texts with Greek and Roman assumptions about gender in other spheres

Description
As literature written in Latin has almost no female authors, we are dependent on male writers for some understanding of the way women would have spoken. Plautus (3rd to 2nd century BCE) and Terence (2nd century BCE) consistently write particular linguistic features into the lines spoken by their female characters: endearments, soft speech, and incoherent focus on numerous small problems. Dorota M. Dutsch describes the construction of this feminine idiom and asks whether it should be considered as evidence of how Roman women actually spoke.
