This book is a comprehensive study of visual humour in ancient Greece, with special emphasis on works created in Athens and Boeotia. Alexandre G. Mitchell brings an interdisciplinary approach to this topic, combining theories and methods of art history, archaeology and classics with the anthropology of humour, and thereby establishing new ways of looking at art and visual humour in particular. Understanding what visual humour was to the ancients and how it functioned as a tool of social cohesion is only one facet of this study. Mitchell also focuses on the social truths that his study of humour unveils: democracy and freedom of expression; politics and religion; Greek vases and trends in fashion; market-driven production; proper and improper behaviour; popular versus elite culture; carnival in situ; and the place of women, foreigners, workers and labourers within the Greek city. Richly illustrated with more than 140 drawings and photographs, this study amply documents the comic representations that formed an important part of ancient Greek visual language from the sixth to the fourth centuries BC.

Honoré Daumier (1808-1879), Paul Gavarni (1804-1866) et Félicien Rops (1833-1898), trois artistes qui explorent avec talent les moeurs de leurs contemporains. À travers leurs lithographies publiées dans les journaux de l'époque, ils offrent un inventaire truculent des types corporels propres à la société du xi xe siècle. De la crinoline envahissant les trottoirs parisiens aux lorettes et autres femmes de petite vertu, du spéculateur à l'avocat, des bourgeois aux gens du peuple et aux artistes eux-mêmes : la caricature sociale n'épargne personne. Les relations de couple s'y trouvent également mises à mal : le mari et l'épouse, mais aussi l'amant et la prostituée. La physionomie de ces protagonistes, passée au crible de leur regard acerbe, provoque le rire mais aussi la polémique. Les corps, les vêtements, les attitudes et les accessoires participent à la création de typologies corporelles surprenantes et pourtant immédiatement reconnaissables : sous le crayon de ces observateurs de génie, c'est tout un art de la silhouette qui se dessine.
