. . . " (La Divina Commedia ed. Camerini, Milano, 1893, p. 20.) Chaucer's definition of tragedy is, **Tragedye is to seyn a dite of a prosperite for a tyme that endeth in wrecchidnesse." (Boece, Bk. II, Prosa ii. Close.) A distinction similar to that of Dante is given in the Co^/tcow of Johannes Januensis (1286) : **diflFenmt tragoedia et comoedia, quia comedia privatorum hominum continet facta, tragoedia regum et magnatum. Item comoedia humili stilo describitur tragoedia alto. Item comoedia a ...tristibus incipit sed cum laetio desinit, tragoedia e contrario." (Quoted by Chambers in The MeduBval Stage, II, 209.) See also Cloetta, Beitrage zur LiUeraturgeschichte des MUtelaliers, I, s. 140-4. In the prologue to the Amphitryon of Plautus there is a discussion as to whether the play is to be a comedy or a tragedy and it is assumed that the question is to be decided by the worldly dignity of the dramMis persotue : since a servant is to be introduced besides the kings and gods who are the chief characters the author decides to call the play a tragi-comedy.
