Routledge, London / NewYork, 2000. X,338p. Paperback. Font cover and first pages slightly dog's eared. Still a nice copy. 'P. acknowledges some impact from theoretical work on performance, narratology, reader-response, reception, New Historicism and gender, but the impact is implicit is one of his strengths. Two others are his elegant amalgam of academic and conversational style and his sense of humour. (.) What drives P. is the texts, approached with scholarship, reasonable cynicism, and good humour. Some principles emerge. We should note what the author expected to be sayable without alienating the audience, test comic texts by asking how little must be true for a joke to work, expect authors to cater for different reactions, look for how the audience thought, attend to context, and avoid hermetically sealing 'funny' from 'serious'. (.). P.'s texts are diverse and, though rhetoric is a common factor, the manipulation of reality in Thucydides or Plutarch are rather different from those in forensic oratory, comedy, or tragedy.' (C.J. TUPLIN in The Classical Review (New Series), 2001, pp.322-323). From the library of Prof. Carl Deroux. Artikel-Nr. 50140
