| dc.description.abstract | The main aim of this paper is to consider the significance of humour in ancient Greek novels: how far this phenomenon is discussed in the theoretical reflection on this literary genre, as well as how important is its role in the works of singular novelists. In the first part of the article, which is entirely devoted to theoretical aspects, the definitions and functions of the humour, which are proposed by contemporary researchers of Greek novels, are analysed. Special attention is paid to the possibility of using humour as a fundamental criterion for classifying ancient Greek novels. This proposal is finally questioned for the reason, among other things, that it creates many new inaccuracies and inconsistencies in the chronology of par- ticular novels and the whole genre. In the second part of this paper the leading question is whether and how the phenomenon of humour shapes the character of the world presented in Greek novels. While in the oldest novels of Chariton and Xenophon the humour, it seems, does not play an important part, other novelists make use of it not only willingly, but in an original and sophisticated way as well. The effect of it is that humour becomes one of very important tools used to create meanings of particular ele- ments and even the whole text. Taking into account such different elements as a way of presenting a love plot, some traits of leading characters, the model of ego-narration and finally some literary devices such as qui pro quo, we can also discern that humour in the novels of Longos, Achilleus Tatios and Heliodor enables the readers to be involved into a sophisticated play in convention of the genre. At the same time in Longos’ and Heliodor’s novels humour allowed to create a really serious and moralizing message. | pl_PL |
