 Review of Ronald Paulson's Don Quixote in England: The Aesthetics of Laughter, by Laura J. Gorfkle
Paulson draws on Kundera and Bergson's studies of the comic to define humor as it was practiced by the English satirists.
Paulson breaks down the concept of aestheticizing laughter into four major thematic blocks: the madness of the imagination, the cruelty of the laughter of ridicule, the problematizing of the beautiful, and the extension of the idea of madness into religious doctrine.
Focusing on the burlesque, Paulson distinguishes between the “false burlesque,” where the butt of the burlesque satire is pulled down and degraded, and the “true burlesque,” or what he calls “grave irony,” by which the victim of satire is pulled down but is also revealed capable of maintaining the face of gravity.

 Review 3
Paulson argues, the currency of Don Quixote in Restoration and eighteenth-century England gave high visibility to four important contested issues: the "madness" of trusting imagination; the implicit cruelty of laughter; the problematizing of what is and is not beautiful; and the dangerous extension of ideas of madness or delusion into the area of religious doctrine.
Paulson begins by drawing attention to a split between the idealist Quixote who expects his Dulcinea to be a perfect beauty and realist Sancho Panza who supposes that even the loveliest woman will have a flaw or two to set off her beauty.
Paulson's conceptual leaps and bold literary connections are sometimes hard to follow, so this is not an easy book to read; on the other hand, his various discussions are intelligent, substantial, comprehensive, and well-researched, so there are many reasons to read the book all the same.

Paulson, a resident of Texas, filed a responsive pleading and cross-petition, admitting that Jones was Jordan's father, and seeking, inter alia, sole custody of Jordan, child support from Jones and a determination from the court that Jordan's surname be changed to Paulson-Jones.
Paulson testified that she thought it would be good to give Jordan the surname Paulson-Jones so that he would have an identity with both of his parents.
The case was originally brought in district court by three farmers, Ronald Hagan, Troy Brandt, and Todd Hatcher to have the court declare that contracts between the Upper Republican Valley Natural Resources District and certain hog feeders in the area were illegal and void.

 Criticism: The Life of Henry Fielding. - Review - book review
Ronald Paulson admits that, when invited to contribute this volume to the Blackwell Critical Biographies series, he realized that he had "inadvertently" been at work on the book for forty years, years in which he worked on "satire, popular culture, religion, and aesthetics" and "Fielding kept cropping up" (xii-iii).
Paulson calls this earlier book "encyclopedic" and so it is. Battestin, the dominant Fielding scholar of the last half century, was able to supplant earlier biographers by his tireless efforts in the archives.
Paulson unfortunately does not include the name of any critic in his otherwise detailed and useful index, and so it is impossible easily to add up the appearance of Battestin's name or ideas, but my suspicion is that if the index had included Battestin, he might well be the second longest entry after Fielding himself.

Ronald Paulson is a highly distinguished scholar, whose art-historical work on Hogarth has been inspirational to many, and whose careful and fruitful work on eighteenth-century satire is also highly valued by literary scholars.
Paulson’s basic thesis is simple enough: he claims that Hogarth’s sequence of paintings entitled The Harlot’s Progress has a specifically Christian message to impart—one of atonement.
Via a complex discussion of the history and provenance of the theological ideas of atonement, sacrifice, redemption and incarnation, Paulson traces the shift in orthodox Christianity, which, he says, was away from the harshness of atonement and sacrifice, towards redemption and gentler mediation or negotiation in the quest for God’s mercy.

 Johns Hopkins Magazine -- November 2000
Ronald Paulson, the world's expert on matters Hogarthian, has generated a profoundly new portrait of the 18th-century artist who found Beauty in all the "wrong" places.
Paulson wryly observes, "I can't think of too many people reading all of them." Peruse the many pages and you'll learn that Hogarth recalled that in school he "drew the alphabet with great ease." That in 1730 or '31, he accepted a commission for a portrait from a Mr.

Paulson shows hogarth creating, first in practice and then in theory, a middle area between the Beautiful and the Sublime by adapting Joseph Addison's category (in the Spectator) of the Novel, Uncommon, and Strange.
Paulson retrieves an aesthetics that had strong support during the eighteenth century but has been obscured both by the more dominant academic discourse of Shaftesbury (and later Sir Joshua Reynolds) and by current trends in art and literary history.
Paulson has an encyclopedic knowledge not only of eighteenth-century literary and visual cultural forms, but also of their most salient instances.

 Johns Hopkins University Press | Books | Hogarth's Harlot
In Hogarth's Harlot, Ronald Paulson explains this absence of official censure through a detailed examination of the parameters of blasphemy in eighteenth-century England and the changing attitudes toward the central tenets of the Christian Church among artists in this period.
Discerning a profound spiritual and cultural shift from atonement and personal salvation to redemption, incarnation, and acts of charity and love, Paulson focuses on such influential factors as English antipopery and anti-Jacobitism, as well as the ideas of the English Enlightenment.

 The New York Review of Books: READING HOGARTH
As evidence that the Harlot is Hercules in a parody of the "Choice of Hercules" in plate one, he produces the single fact that there are three central figures in the scene, the Harlot, a procuress, and a clergyman.
In reply, Paulson cites a portrait on the wall of the Harlot's boudoir in some versions of plate two which has been identified by several early commentators as that of the Deist Thomas Woolston.
What I concluded from that experience was that large sections of Paulson's text were like a house of cards, unable to stand up to the slightest breath of historical or critical scrutiny.

If you're interested in connections between visual and literary arts in the eighteenth century, take a look at these Hogarth prints, which you might consider in the light of the comparative analysis of Hogarth and Fielding made by Ronald Paulson, The Art of Hogarth in the Reed library (ND497.
Paulson makes a fascinating argument about the ways in which the Hogarth prints allow multiple readings (because the viewer can view them from the perspective of "master" or "apprentice"), whereas, in his view, Fielding's narrative imposes a "master" (cultural elite) view upon the reader.
If you choose not to read parts of Paulson, your 100 words should simply compare and contrast some aspect of these prints with some aspect of the Joseph Andrews.

Hogarth's paintings were mainly worked direct on to the canvas and his studies from life often took the form of thumbnail sketches.
Almost all his copper plates survived until the early part of this century and were frequently reprinted, with the consequence that many worn and re-worked impressions exist.
All the important prints and a number of minor examples are on permanent display at Hogarth's summer villa at Chiswick in west London which is open to the public and was refurbished for the tercentenary of his birth in 1997.

Letty herself, showing as to her mouth and pinafore some slight signs that she had been assisting at the gathering of the cherries which stood in a coral-heap on the tea-table, was now seated on the grass, listening open-eyed to the reading.
The connotations of the apple tree are repeated in the cherries and borne out by the concentration of the portraiture upon the younger generation.
Two empty chairs remain, and the absence of their occupants is, as Paulson says, "the most important thing about the picture." This conversation piece, which hints mysteriously at family troubles, accidentally anticipates many nineteenth-century treatments of domestic dispute, abandonment, infidelity, or bereavement.

 Hogarth & Monamy
At the time of writing, I was influenced mainly by The Art of Hogarth, by Ronald Paulson, Phaidon 1975; and the introduction to Joseph Burke's edition of Hogarth's Analysis of Beauty, Oxford 1955, which begins with an account of Hogarth's "war with the connoisseurs".
Of greater relevance is Lindsay's notice of the "rectangular constructions", the imprisoning constrictions ever-present in Hogarth's paintings, as eloquently described in Paulson's writing.
Monamy's "prospect", at one level, is offering a window on the outside, macrocosmic world, and an escape from the prison in which he and and his sniffy connoisseur are confined.

Stinson, a Baltimore native, is a dramatist as well as a fiction writer; his play Median was performed at Actors Theatre of Louisville and has been published by Samuel French.
Paulson, who is William D. and Robin Mayer Professor of the Humanities in the Department of English, traces Fielding's progress through a series of professions (playwright and theater-manager, journalist, barrister, magistrate), showing how each left its mark on the novelist's language and outlook.
In particular, Paulson clarifies Fielding's religious views, arguing that the writer was misjudged both by his early detractors--who thought his novels "low, immoral, and possibly blasphemous"--and by twentieth-century scholars who "remade him into a virtuous Christian apologist."
