The Psychology of Laughter and Comedy (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from The Psychology of Laughter and Comedy

Most of the philosophers and psychologists who have addressed themselves to the subject Of laughter, have dashed boldly into the midst Of it, and there dealt about them manfully with the weapons that came to hand. I 'am, I confess it, Of a fainter heart, and would lay out and take the measure Of the weapons to be used in the fray. For in truth the subject Of laughter is a battle-ground, strewn with the bodies Of heroes and encumbered with the debris of many a brave system Of philosophy. It is prudent to reconnoitre the field before adventuring.
