• Resumen

  • We aim to answer the question of the relationship, rather than debt, of Faulkner’s As I Lay Dying to some dramatic genres such as the Italian Commedia dell’Arte, Ben Jonson’s comedy of humours and Sherwood Anderson’s grotesques. To conclude finally that although there is evidence of a certain amount of simplification and typification of the characters on Faulkner’s hands they are nevertheless singular and individually portrayed beings.
