Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2017. 1st paperback ed. VI,208p. Paperback. 'This slim book rather extraordinarily proposes a theory for the whole 'wild cognitive storm' (189) of Old Comedy, and indeed for humor itself. To do so, it draws on-stage action, audience reaction, far-flung theoretical models, and scholarly rece…ption resolutely into its orbit. I am sure I will never teach Old Comedy again without reference to Kidd?s ideas, whether in agreement or otherwise. He writes very well, making liberal use of the figurative in a sprightly and inviting way (e.g., 'regarding allegories, some feverish readers discover them everywhere' [54], 'leaving ???? to hang flaccidly at the end of the line' [138]) and allowing his own authorial voice to guide the proceedings, so that we readers may feel that we are fellow-travelers along for the ride of his own explorations. It is a good book for reading in order and in its entirety. I would suggest that anyone interested in Old Comedy, and in comedy fullstop, do just this.' (SARAH NOOTER in Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2016.11.53).

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book examines the concept of 'nonsense' in ancient Greek thought and uses it to explore the comedies of the fifth and fourth centuries BCE. If 'nonsense' (phluaria, l¿ros) is a type of language felt to be unworthy of interpretation, it can help…to define certain aspects of comedy that have proved difficult to grasp. Not least is the recurrent perception that although the comic genre can be meaningful (i.e. contain political opinions, moral sentiments and aesthetic tastes), some of it is just 'foolery' or 'fun'. But what exactly is this 'foolery', this part of comedy which allegedly lies beyond the scope of serious interpretation The answer is to be found in the concept of 'nonsense': by examining the ways in which comedy does not mean, the genre's relationship to serious meaning (whether it be political, aesthetic, or moral) can be viewed in a clearer light.
