Eunuchus: The Eunuch by Terence (c.195 BC - 159 BC)

Another of the plays by Terence translated from the Latin by Riley. "A certain citizen of Athens had a daughter named Pamphila, and a son called Chremes. The former was stolen while an infant, and sold to a Rhodian merchant, who having made a present of her to a Courtesan of Rhodes, she brought her up with her own daughter Thais, who was somewhat older." (From Translator summary) Hmmm, so kidnapping and slavery to start off; then there will be eunuchs and rape before the play ends. And it is a comedy?! Ah, well, it was 200BC. Times and opinions (thank goodness) have changed at least a bit since then. - Summary by ToddHWCast list:Laches, an aged Athenian: Jim LockePhædria, his son: Aaron WhiteChærea, his son: Tomas PeterAntipho, a young man, friend of Chærea: <a href="https://librivox.org/re
