A. Cuddon, Revised by C. E. Preston. New Delhi: Penguin Books, 1999. |\n\nComedy Form: QA.  \nQ.1 Define Comedy and discuss its characteristics in length. OR Comment on the consideration of comedy by critics. OR Discuss comedy as a form of literature. OR  \nWrite a note on some of the most common elements of comedy? OR  \nWhat is Comedy? OR  \nWhat are the chief characteristics of comedy? Explain. OR Write a detailed essay on the essential characteristics of comedy.  \nAns. It is a very difficult task to define comedy for its outward shape is variable; it can be narrative, dramatic, or descriptive. It can occur without words at all in sculpture, picture or ballet. To say in a sentence then comedy is a kind of literature that creates an atmosphere of joy, merriment and laughter. Comedy is a word derived from the Greek. Aristophanes was the pioneer who developed this form that was later on followed by the Romans and gradually Elizabethans considered the Romans as their models for writing comedy.  \nA play that gives us pleasant moments about life, makes us laugh is generally labelled as comedy. The expected effect of comedy is to relax human being from emotional tension. According to Meredith, \"The pure comedy is entirely free from the wrath (anger) or zeal of the reforms or the moralist....\" .  \n(1) The function of comedy is neither to arouse the emotions nor to correct and reform.  \n(2) \"Its function is merely to provide light hearted fun that should be thoughtful and impersonal.  \nSubject:  \nComedy is an idea, it is also a way of writing. Thus the subject matter is very much important for comedy. Comedy deals with the abnormal events as well as complicated characters. There should be realistic depiction નનરૂ઩ણ of eccentric નલચિત્ર characters. If the aim of comedy is corrective then, according to Ben Jonson, human follies may be the subject matter in comedy. For example, Every Man in his Humour.  \nSometimes sex is also considered the favourite topic in comedy e.g. Tom Jones by Fielding. The reason is that comedy functions as a safetyvalve for passions or erotic passions. Comedy is essentially related with men and not with fairies. Therefore social microcosm is depicted as a subject for comedy also. As Shakespeare modified Ariel, Caliban as social fellows.  \nStyle:  \nIf style is important, the writer of comedy has to be very much accurate about the style of presenting the comedy form variously. The comedy should be precise; all presented characters and situations should be clear. The writer must have an ability to be direct, simple and concise. As per situation the writer must be analytical with a view to expressing his motive. Sometimes irony can be an effective tool to convey the meaning to the readers e.g. Gulliver's Travels by Swift. The effective dialogue with repartee શાજય જલાફ can be necessary","cbCaib1KzTRpVXNc","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaib1KzTRpVXNc","pdf",2725517,10,1,156,"English","en",105,"# Unit 1: Comedy Form - Origin and Development\n## Types of Comedies and Characteristics\n## Short Notes: Character, Plot, Setting, Conflict, Theme\n# Unit 2: Pygmalion - G.
