DIEZ, Viviana. Coqui plautinos: el cuerpo subalterno como amenaza. Argos [online]. 2013, vol.36, n.2, pp.151-167. ISSN 1853-6379.

This paper examines some characteristics of the coquus mask in the plautine corpus. First, we study how this character, from references to physical punishment and sexual passivity, is built as a subordinate body to the service of others. Then, we consider his appearances as a thief and a provider of bodily pleasures. We propose that the way cooks are represented in Plautus' palliata shows us the link established by Republican axiology between subaltern social actors, body and threat to mores maiorum.

Palabras clave : Plautus.
