En savoir plus sur le livre

The book explores a theory of comedy that is believed to align with Aristotle's lost second book of "Poetics." It challenges formalist and intellectual interpretations, proposing that understanding comedy requires examining its ultimate purpose, particularly in relation to tragedy's role in eliciting catharsis through pity and fear. This perspective offers a fresh lens on the interplay between comedy and tragedy, emphasizing the emotional and philosophical dimensions of both genres.
