À PROPOS DE CET ÉPISODE
Contemplating Comedy by Jonathan Levitt. Book Review
Johnathan Levitt is a chess grandmaster who turned his hand to book-publishing during the Covid lockdown.
Tudor examines the book and tries out the author's approach of providing a set of comic quotes, then commenting on them.
He adds his own contemplations, including the theory of humour proposed by the French philosopher Henri Bergson.
