The Old French and Chaucerian Fabliaux: A Study of Their Comic Climax

by Cooke, Thomas D

  • Used
  • Hardcover
Thomas D. Cooke offers a refined interpretation of the humor of the Old French fabliaux, noting that the amusement found in the thirteenth-century tales depends upon the combination of a surprise ending and a very careful preparation for that surprise. In his study of the various ways the authors of the fabliaux aim for the comic climax, Cooke discovers that in the successful tales the use of characterization, settings, actions, dialogues, and authorial commentary all help build toward it.
