Description

“Christian laughter is a maze: you could easily get snarled up within it.” So says Michael A. Screech in his note to readers preceding this collection of fifty-three elegant and pithy essays. As Screech reveals, the question of whether laughter is acceptable to the god of the Old and New Testaments is a dangerous one. But we are fortunate in our g About the Author M. A. Screech is an Extraordinary Fellow of Wolfson College and an Emeritus Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford, a Fellow of the British Academy and of the Royal Society of Literature, and a Fellow of University College London. He is a Renaissance scholar of international renown. His other books include Erasmus: Ecstasy and the Praise of Folly (Penguin, 1988), Rabelais and Montaigne and Melancholy. All are acknowledged to be classics in their fields. In Latin, he is the editor, with Anne Screech, of Erasmus' Annotations on the New Testament (in three volumes). His highly acclaimed edition of Montaigne's Complete Essays is published in Penguin Classics. Michael Screech was promoted Chevalier dans l'Ordre du Mérite in 1982 and Chevalier dans la Légion d'Honneur in 1992.. He was ordained, in Oxford, a deacon in 1993 and a priest in 1994.
