First appearance in Rieu's renowned 'Penguin Classics' series, and first publication of Watling's translation. The cover roundel is based on an alleged bust of the dramatist. A note in Penguin's Bristol archives suggests that one 'Bert Pugh' was responsible for the design (see Edwards Hare & Robinson, p.60). Penguin Classics, L3.
