Description | This essay collection is dedicated to intersections between gender theories and theories of laughter, humour, and comedy. It includes a series of investigations on traditional and modern media in western cultures from the 18th to the 20th century. A theoretical opening part is followed by four thematic sections that explore the multiple forms of irritating stereotypical gender perceptions: aspects of (post-)colonialism and multiculturalism: the comic impact of literary and media genres in different national cultures: as well as the different comic strategies in fictional, philosophical, artistic or real life communication. The volume presents a variety of new approaches to the overlaps between gender and laughter. |
