More about the book
By challenging the traditional view that tragedy holds greater philosophical significance, Gelven emphasizes the importance of comedy in understanding truth. Through detailed analyses of characters like Silvius, Cherubino, and Lord Goring, the book explores how these comedic figures embody both folly and grace. Gelven argues that comedy reveals deeper insights into human nature and our limitations, making it a vital area of study for philosophers, literary critics, and anyone interested in the essence of truth.
