Pure Joke: An Introduction

Brecht Yearbook 44:81–84 (2019)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

This special section on comedy since Brecht argues that the rise of performativity and theatricality that we have experienced over the past century was largely enabled by a comic dispositif. This comic dispositif - forged beyond the illusionistic dramatical and cultural forms of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries - has greatly shaped the performative strategies of modern theater.
