520    "What made the Romans laugh? Was ancient Rome a carnival, 
       filled with practical jokes and hearty chuckles? Or was it
       a carefully regulated culture in which the uncontrollable 
       excess of laughter was a force to fear-a world of wit, 
       irony, and knowing smiles? How did Romans make sense of 
       laughter? What role did it play in the world of the law 
       courts, the imperial palace, or the spectacles of the 
       arena? Laughter in Ancient Rome explores one of the most 
       intriguing, but also trickiest, of historical subjects. 
       Drawing on a wide range of Roman writing-from essays on 
       rhetoric to a surviving Roman joke book-Mary Beard tracks 
       down the giggles, smirks, and guffaws of the ancient 
       Romans themselves. From ancient 'monkey business' to the 
       role of a chuckle in a culture of tyranny, she explores 
       Roman humor from the hilarious, to the momentous, to the 
       surprising. But she also reflects on even bigger 
       historical questions. What kind of history of laughter can
       we possibly tell? Can we ever really 'get' the Romans' 
       jokes?"--|cProvided by publisher.
