This book, devoted to written expressions of brevity, is a dense introduction to the varied forms it takes: the aphorism, fragment, maxim, anecdote, and Witz, with examples from a range of authors such as Lichtenberg, Chamfort, Nietzsche, Erasmus, Jean Paul, Gracian, Pascal, Ramon Gomez de la Serna, and more.
