"Comedy Matters" traces the long tradition of the expansive
comic embrace of cultural difference and diversity that manages to
survive even in some of mankind's darkest moments. Demastes argues
that comedy has a hard-nosed, pragmatic dimension that can be
mobilized against belligerent cultural forces. Drawing from the
works of Shakespeare, Stoppard, and a number of other comic
masters, "Comedy Matters" demonstrates how comedy continues to work
against cultural regimentation by striving to re-calibrate our
decision-making processes and challenging the stultifying rigidity
of human economy in the broadest sense of the term.
