COMICAL ASPECTS IN EUGENIO COSERIU’S DIDACTIC DISCOURSE

Summary/Abstract: Even if he was a rigorous professor and researcher, the Romanian linguist Eugenio Coseriu mastered the art of elaborating a discourse (on a rather sterile field) so that he would attract the public (during lectures) or the readers (in the case of the studies written for publication). His rhetorical competence, as well as his rich teaching experience gained in many universities of the world, were definitely of great help. An important component of his strategy of captivating his interlocutors were surely the funny examples either invented by himself, or taken from various sources (literature, movies, cartoons etc.). In this article, I aim at presenting and commenting on some of these comical aspects of the Coserian didactic discourse.
