| Description | Fabula atellana, a short satiric composition with stock characters, is preserved only in fragments. Though we can sense that folk laughter retained by the Latin poets in the smart puns or euphemisms in the preserved material. For this study I have chosen those fragments where the material corporal elements and the tipic characters occur. |
