Abstract

Chopin creates four scherzos throughout three creative periods in his lifetime, which grasp the essence of humor and make it connected with characteristics like satire, dignity, sublimity, heroism, tragedy, etc. These four works get rid of vulgarity and sensationalism, improving the aesthetic category of scherzo to a more prominent level and equipping it with more profound ideological contents and philosophy on basis of humor. This paper focuses on the discussion of how sublimity and heroism are implanted into Chopin's scherzos.
