Opis

McFarland presents a personal theory of comedy that shows a knowledge ofcomic theory and practice, the origin and nature of the comic vision, thepastoral elegy, and the golden age. He deftly draws together the variouselements and shows how the blending of the pastoral with thecomic allows the inclusion of religious concerns to be a natural part ofwhat is originally a socially oriented art form.
