Looking At Laughter

Explores the question, "What made Romans laugh?" This book examines a heterogeneous corpus of visual material, from the crudely obscene to the exquisitely sophisticated and from the playful to the deadly serious - everything from street theater to erudite paintings parodying the emperor.
