    Fiction is the truth within the lie. What does this mean? What is the difference between truth and verisimilitude? Does fiction (e.g. Red Badge of Courage) or non-fiction (e.g. Stillness at Appomattox) give a more accurate portrayal of the Civil War?

    Comedy is based on an unjust law or tradition which in the end is broken. There is always a complication, but the comedy ends in the reestablishment of the natural order of things, and everybody paired off and living happily ever after. Two sub-genres of Comedy are Comedy of Manners and Comedy of Humors.

    The Comedy of Humors goes back to the belief of medieval physiology that human dispositions are based on the balance of the four basic fluids, phlegm, blood, black bile, and yellow bile. If the balance is not right a person might be phlegmatic, sanguine, melancholy or bilious. (Nilsens in Raskin [2008] 248)
