Atellan Tales by Marlen: Italian comedy at the time of Plautus
Posted in Products, Promotions on Aug 24th, 2015
Back in the IV Century B.C.E., Greece was educating its people in democracy and citizenship through Tragedy and Myth in public theaters. At the other end of the Adriatic Sea, Italians preferred laughter to tears and had invented cabaret long before its time: the Atellan Tales. Italian pen maker Marlen has issued a pen series representing the main characters of such ancient tales. You can now have them at an end-of-series special price from Giardino Italiano.
