Comedies, Volume 2: The Rope, The Pot of Gold, Two Sisters Named Bacchis, The Entrepreneur, The Savage Slave
You can find my general thoughts about Plautus here:
The Rope - *** This play of reconciliation and reunion reminds me of Shakespeare's late plays - especially The Tempest. A storm starts the plot unfolding, and a daughter is reunited with her father, a husband is found, slaves are freed, etc. Otherwise, this play is moderately entertaining but not a must read. There is an interesting interlude by a fisherman about the struggles of the poor.
