Misoumenos, translated as The Hated Man, is an Ancient Greek comedy by Menander. Once considered lost, fragments of more than 400 verses of the play have been found. However, most of these are seriously damaged, making it difficult to reconstruct the plot of the play. Separate lines from the prologue also survived by being quoted by later writers.
