Immortal comedy

the comic phenomenon in art, literature, and life

Edición de la obra Immortal comedy

"Immortal Comedy is the first book to "think" philosophically about the comic phenomenon in general. This book is a deep meditation on the subject of the comic form in film, literature, and life. In it, Agnes Heller takes us on a journey through theories of comedy, beginning with classical thought. She then detours through foundational political thinkers who refer to, for instance, laughter and power. We are also introduced to several approaches to thinking comedy: modern systematic approaches, psychological approaches, and existential approaches."--Jacket.
