grbs-10891	Ludwig, Walther	The Originality of Terence and his Greek Models	1968	14	.pdf	application/pdf	6239	305	63	When Terence omits the name of an Athenian suburb and instead writes in his regionibus, it is certainly paying too much honor to this modification to see in such an avoidance of a reference too specifically Greek a search for the universal.13 Naturally Terence left out Greek place-names and customs which meant nothing to his public, as far as he could do so without harm to the intelligibility of the action. If one observes this compromising tendency of Terence, one is in no danger of accepting the widespread idea that he is responsible for a fundamental humanizing and deepening of his models and that his use of contaminatio was guided by a humane aesthetic ideal.10 Further consideration of the way in which Terence combined parts of a second Greek play with his primary model may save us from another error.	cache/grbs-10891.pdf	txt/grbs-10891.txt
