Argues that Paul's acceptance of the role of a 'fool', and his evaluation of the message of the cross as 'foolishness', are understood against the background of the theatre and the fool's role in the mime. The author's investigation demonstrates that the term 'folly' (moria) was understood as a designation of the attitude.
