DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from An Essay on Comedy: And the Uses of the Comic Spirit Moreover, to touch and kindle the mind through laughter, demands more than sprightliness, a most subtle delicacy. That must be a natal gift in the Comic poet. The substance he deals with will show him a startling exhibition of the dyer's hand, if he is without it. People are ready to surrender themselves to witty thumps on the back, breast, and sides; all except the head: and it is there that he aims. He must be subtle to penetrate. A corresponding acute ness must exist to welcome him. The necessity for the two conditions will explain how it is that we count him during centuries in the singular number.
