Comedy
Comedy is a genre of fiction that consists of discourses or works intended to be humorous or amusing by inducing laughter, especially in theatre, film, stand-up comedy, television, radio, books, or any other entertainment medium.

Northrop Frye depicted these two opposing sides as a "Society of Youth" and a "Society of the Old".

Common forms include comic strips, editorial and gag cartoons, and comic books.
