O knihe

If by definition "entertainment" equals "fun" or "pleasure", then not all news works for entertainment. Those that invite laughter and take away worries are entertaining. But the technique of narration is not limited only in the comic as in L'Heptaméron, the Nouvelles Récréations and Joyeux Devis and the Histoires Tragiques.Can we still think of the function of entertainment in the short story of the XVIth century when Marguerite de Navarre exposes in a serious way the cruelty, the intolerance and the pride of the aristocracy in the name of the honor and the honesty? With the " coat of virtue " " the malice is covered " or " there is not more dangerous venyn that celluy which is dissimulated ". The essential for the novel is the psychology of the characters who suffer under the tyranny of love and love passion to commit crimes of the Tragic Stories. And what do we think of the condemnation of hypocrisy and the concealment of ignoble acts in the undeniable statement "and men and women are common to vices and virtue".
