Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides an engaging historical overview of English wit and humor from its medieval origins, through the Renaissance, to the cusp of the Victorian Era. The author illustrates his discussion with generous examples from the works of Chaucer, Shakespeare, and many others, showing the ways in which wit and humor evolved in both form and style over five hundred years. The result is a fascinating study of how English wit began as a tool for social and political criticism, and gradually developed into a sophisticated and widespread literary mode. This book is essential for students and scholars of English literature, and for anyone interested in the history of comedy. It sheds new light on familiar texts and figures, and provides a rich storehouse of quotable lines and anecdotes. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781333307189_0
