喜剧有问题
作者：

正如许多理论家所指出的那样，《永久嘉年华喜剧》的乐趣部分来自于它驱散焦虑的能力，但它并不是简单地做到这一点。作为一种审美模式和一种生活形式，它的行为同样可能产生焦虑：冒着越轨的风险，与不愉快调情，或者只是以一种既强化又阻碍快乐的方式混淆事物。喜剧是有问题的。喜剧涉及的一个令人担忧的问题是，在某种程度上是正式的或技术性的，导致了社会：找出事物之间的区别的问题，包括人，他们之间的关系是相互扰乱定义的。经典
Permanent Carnival Comedy’s pleasure comes in part from its ability to dispel anxiety, as so many of its theoreticians have noted, but it doesn’t simply do that. As both an aesthetic mode and a form of life, its action just as likely produces anxiety: risking transgression, flirting with displeasure, or just confusing things in a way that both intensifies and impedes the pleasure. Comedy has issues. One worry comedy engages is formal or technical in a way that leads to the social: the problem of figuring out distinctions between things, including people, whose relation is mutually disruptive of definition.
