references to Bakhtin’s grotesque are now commonplace in the studies on aristophanes. The purpose of this paper is to complicate the way Bakhtin’s concept has been interrogated so far both by classical philology and literary theory. Taking into consideration one of the most important themes of archaia, the body, it appears that aristophanic comedy is not, as has so far been assumed from Bakhtin himself onwards, an unproblematic case of pure grotesque but, on the contrary, that it discusses and problematizes the grotesque worldview; the result is a new, completely original stance on the body, literature and the world.

Abstract
references to Bakhtin’s grotesque are now commonplace in the studies on aristophanes. The purpose of this paper is to complicate the way Bakhtin’s concept has been interrogated so far both by classical philology and literary theory. Taking into consideration one of the most important themes of archaia, the body, it appears that aristophanic comedy is not, as has so far been assumed from Bakhtin himself onwards, an unproblematic case of pure grotesque but, on the contrary, that it discusses and problematizes the grotesque worldview; the result is a new, completely original stance on the body, literature and the world.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
