亚里士多德《诗学》第二卷 / Aristotle’s Poetics Book II
亚里士多德《诗学》第二卷 / Aristotle’s Poetics Book II is the lost or imagined text at the center of 54.玫瑰的名字（下）：真与假，正与邪，诠释与过度诠释’s reading of 《玫瑰的名字》 / The Name of the Rose. The episode explains that the real historical second book is lost and is often imagined as a work on comedy and laughter.
In the novel, the book becomes lethal because 豪尔赫 / Jorge of Burgos has poisoned its pages and hidden it inside the library’s restricted order. Jorge fears the text not simply because people might laugh, but because Aristotle’s authority could make laughter intellectually legitimate. That makes the book a hinge between Knowledge Monopoly, Laughter Against Authority, and Interpretation And Overinterpretation.
