Zusammenfassung:Mikhail Bakhtin observed not many years ago that laughter and its forms represent the least scrutinized sphere of human creation. It is true that "humorous" literature has historically been considered secondary, even marginal, within the western European literary tradition; perhaps this is so because "comedy" was never fully legitimized by classical poetics. In the case of poetry, the poets themselves are often reluctant to publish or even conserve what they consider to be their "frivolous" comical verse. Yet the comic tradition is as rich and as deep-seated within human nature and in literature as is the serious mode. Humor and its manifestations are of profound and vital significance to both social history and literary studies.
