AB Timeless comedy is clearly the authentic successful one. It is not possible to find an equivalent in spatial terms; the so-called "universal comedy" is just an ideal. MontyPython's Life of Brian represents the apex of this type of humor whose stillness challenges the necessary evolution of everything else including the language, main Pythonesque cornerstone. This tension between opposing forces increases as we introduce the aforementioned notion of space in terms of culture. Hence, it is interesting to examine whether our culture is able to capture this motionlessness without fossilizing it. The present paper analyzes the different methods used in the translation of Life of Brian in order to reach a perspective regarding how its characteristic features seem affected by the Target Language.
