Comedy is ontologically prior to tragedy, I think you'll find:
Since everything is but an illusion, perfect in being what it is, having
nothing to do with good or bad, acceptance or rejection, one might as

“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris
