Closely linked, theatre and rhetoric underwent a renaissance in the Latin scholar culture and the vernacular world of urbanized Europe from the fifteenth century onwards. Based on research into ideas, (literary) practices and members, Lustige geesten shows that the rhetoric chambers were the Dutch variant of an early modern culture of public eloquence, with the theatre as quintessence. Rhetoriziens expressed the intellectual and social missions of their chambers in the core concept of rhetoric, which referred to both (utopian) ideals of bourgeoisie and the application of knowledge (conste) in a committed culture. The northern Netherlands (especially Holland and Zeeland) and the southern (especially Flanders and Brabant) formed one rhetoric world of overlapping networks in which international cultural trends were incorporated locally and regionally through an active reading, conversation and discussion culture. The means of public eloquence (writing and staging drama, song, poem) were intended (internally) to shape (in a playful and competitive atmosphere) the minds of young men from wealthy families and middle classes. By organizing (externally) performances in the local party culture and at long-distance rhetorician festivals, rooms functioned as publication centres for their best writers and performers. The rhetoricians thus contributed to the emergence of a vernacular scholar culture and participated in the public debate. Lustige spirits thus shows in which ways the social, institutional and cultural elements of the rhetorician culture determined the social influence of the rhetoricians and their contribution to the emergence of the (northern) Netherlands as a European cultural centre.

Wie het kluchtenrepertoire van de zestiende-eeuwse rederijkers leest, wordt uitgenodigd om zich schilderachtige figuren in actierijke situaties voor te stellen. De kluchtenlezer is getuige van duiveluitdrijvingen, schrans- en vechtpartijen, mishandelingen, vermommingen, gegooi met etenswaren en huisraad, of taferelen waarin mensen in dierenvellen worden genaaid. Als hij zich bij deze visuele voorstellingen ook een klankbeeld voorstelt, dan hoort hij beeldrijke formuleringen, taalverhaspelingen, hyperbolische vergelijkingen, macaronische bezweringen, gewelddadige dreigementen en scheldduels vol bizar woordgebruik. Mooi vies, knap lelijk legt het artistieke principe bloot dat zich manifesteert in de buitensporige lichaamsrepresentaties en het woekerende en gespierde taalgebruik in dit theatergenre. Femke Kramer laat zien hoe deze geësthetiseerde 'lelijkheid' getuigt van een cultuur die zich in grote hevigheid aan het vernieuwen was. Het boek bevat tevens een catalogus met samenvattingen van de 77 kluchten die erin worden besproken.
