TY - EJOUR TI - Laughing until the end, and beyond A study of the comical in ‘Alī Ǧanāḥ al-Tabrīzī wa-tābi‘u-hu Quffa T2 - LiCArC Littérature et culture arabes contemporaines 2019, n° 7. Humour, ironie et autodérision de l’Entre-deux DO - 10.15122/isbn.978-2-406-09850-8.p.0043 SN - 2426-8852 AB - Even though it is a highly comical play, owing to its uncertain ending and its bitter message, we cannot consider ʿAlī Ǧanāḥ al-Tabrīzī wa-tābiʿuhu Quffa (Alfred Faraj, 1967) to be a comedy. Through an analytical approach that takes account of the play’s text, hypotext, and enunciative context, this contribution reveals the types of humor used by the author and determines their socio-political function.
