First line

In 1543 Giambattista Giraldi Cinthio, the influential Italian playwright, critic, and writer of novelle (from whom Shakespeare borrowed the plots of Othello and Measure for Measure), judiciously summarized the Renaissance view of Seneca's dramas: "In almost all his tragedies he surpassed (in as far as I can judge) all the Greeks who ever wrote-in wisdom, in gravity, in decorum, in majesty, and in memorable aphorism."
