What is the difference between high comedy and low comedy?

"high comedy," this kind of writing reflects a not so subtle form of social and intellectual snobbery. Merriam-Webster defines this kind of comedy as comedy employing subtle characterizations and witty dialogue., "low comedy" was much more basic. It is defined as comedy employing burlesque, horseplay, or the  representation of low life It was not serious in nature, and did not appeal to the intellect.

High comedy, a genre distinguished by elegance and wit and intended to appeal to the intellect also includes our more modern forms of entertainment.

This is opposed to Low Comedy, which tends to focus on giving the audience a bellyful of laughs at the expense of other characters, animals, inanimate objects and even the audience itself
