300px|thumb|right|Annotated page of Terence's Adelphoe (act one, scene two) Adelphoe (also Adelphoi and Adelphi; from , Brothers) is a play by Roman playwright Terence, adapted mostly from a play of the same name by Menander, with the addition of a scene from Diphilus. It was first performed in 160 BC at the funeral games of Aemilius Paulus. Adelphoe, like all of Terence's works, survives complete. It was Terence's last play and is often considered his masterpiece. Exploring the best form of child-rearing, the play inspired Molière's The School for Husbands.
