The study about the types of comicality, and in special the humor, worried the romantics and had an influence on the studies in the beginning of the XX century. Freud, influenced and influencing this context, writes two works that treat about this thematic. In this paper, the theme humor goes to some discussions: the humoristic laugh like the framing of the affection and the effect of the affable speech of the Superego for this formation. When the plastic represented by the humoristic laugh is understood, it takes into consideration that this process gathers two possibilities of a trap, both can be constituted either as by the invoking drive or as the scopic drive. The first, by the affable and consolatory speech of the superego, that seems to work as a voice-tamer, the sonority of this speak offers a new place that is not only the deadly imperative. The second trap would be the humoristic laugh, which can be thought as a look-tamer. The contained laugh that frames the sensation of the mockery play in front the risk confronted, even knowing that this challenge persists for out of your edge, which can be approached to tears. To think the effects of the artistic and esthetic characteristics of the humor, two episodes of the work Dom Quixote de La Mancha are taken as illustration. The parts of the romance help to think how the laugh, through the imagistic and sonorous expression, can frame the affections or overflow in excess. This esthetic comprehension helps to situate your reach, that either can be the share of the pleasure or the lonely reaffirmation of the jouissance. Thereby, the humoristic smile can work as a trap for the affection, frames it reveling, retracted, that what terrifies can be faced, even that's not annihilated; the rest is excess. Therefore, even in a risky way, the humor is capable of constructing the utterance of the loss, that remits the subject to their desire.
