Eupolis
Interpretation Given Photius’ explanation of the phrase άνθρωπος έξ όδοϋ
in fr. [408] (n.), with which this fragment is almost certainly to be associated,
Eupolis must have meant “an average group of spectators” (sc. for a comedy
or a tragedy?)—in contrast to an intellectually refined audience “like you” that
would appreciate something good? (cf. fr. 398 with n.).
