Comedy: A Very Short Introduction
ISBN: 9780199601714 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

What is it that writers and speakers enjoy - and risk - when they tell a joke, indulge in bathos, talk nonsense, or encourage irony?
This Very Short Introduction explores comedy both as a literary genre, and as a range of non-literary phenomena, experiences and events. Matthew Bevis studies the classics of comic drama, prose fiction and poetry, alongside forms of pantomime, comic opera, silent cinema, popular...
