The Avare of Moliere is not so properly the picture of a covetous man, as of covetousness itself. Racine's Nero on the other hand, is not a picture of cruelty, but of a cruel man. d.I.: "In dem nämlichen Geiste schildern die zwei Gattungen des Drama auch ihre Charaktere. Die Komödie macht alle ihre Charaktere general; die Tragödie partikulär.
Terence only meant to say, that he had doubled the characters; instead of one old man, one young gallant, one mistress, as in Menander, he had two old men etc. He therefore adds very properly: novam esse ostendi, which certainly could not have been implied, had the characters been the same in the Greek poet.
