The Pragmatics of Humour in Interactive Contexts

Recent years have seen a burgeoning interest in interactional humour from social and pragmatic perspectives, with fascinating results. Released more than a decade later than Norrick and Chiaro (2009) Humor in Interaction, The Pragmatics of Humour in Interactive Contexts gathers some of the most recent work on humour in interaction, with contributions taking (meta)pragmatic approaches to the analysis of various genres of interactive humour in both online and offline settings. This volume illustrates that a range of methodologies and perspectives can be applied to the study of such a complex phenomenon. These include analyses with a cognitive orientation and with multimodal approaches, work based on Relevance Theory, the General Theory of Verbal Humour, and Conversation Analysis, among others. In addition, all the authors represented here are recognised experts on the subject, and in most cases, are leading specialists in their respective fields. The book can be of use not only to scholars who study the linguistics of humour in interaction but also to students who wish to pursue research in the area.

El libro Humor de género. Del texto a la identidad en español se ocupa del humor desde una doble perspectiva: desde el género textual y desde la identidad de género. Se aprovecha para la organización del trabajo la polisemia del término género en español, con el que se traducen los ingleses genre, entendido como género textual, y gender, entendido como construcción de la identidad de género. Tras una revisión de estos términos, se exponen los géneros relacionados con el humor desde un enfoque amplio. En cuanto al género textual, se elige para el análisis uno propiamente humorístico, el monólogo, y uno donde el humor es opcional, la conversación espontánea. Asimismo, se ab...

Cualquiera de nosotros conoce que en español, como en otras lenguas, existen numerosas unidades fraseológicas del tipo de llevar los pantalones, comerse un marrón o error garrafal, pero a menudo nos faltan los datos que nos permitan identificarlas en determinados contextos, reconocerlas cuando se varían con ciertas intenciones o diferenciarlas de otras combinaciones también fijas como los compuestos sintagmáticos. Los ejercidos que aquí se presentan ofrecen una posible respuesta a algunas de estas cuestiones. Están concebidos de forma progresiva, de manera que el curioso, el estudiante o el estudioso de la sintaxis fija se enfrenta en un primer momento a problemas básicos de identif...

Metapragmatics of Humor

Metapragmatics of Humor: Current research trends contributes to a new area in the pragmatics of humor: its conception as a metapragmatic ability. The book collects thirteen chapters organized into three parts: Revisions and applications of General Theory of Verbal Humor (GTVH) in a metapragmatic context; Metapragmatic awareness of humor across textual modes; and Metapragmatic practices within the acquisition of humor. Thus, this book provides an up-to-date panorama of this field, where metapragmatic abilities are described in adults as well as in children, on humorous and non-humorous genres — jokes, cartoons, humorous monologues, parodies, conversation, Twitter —, and using several approaches, such as GTVH, multimodality, conversational analysis, eye-tracking methodology, etc.

Recontextualizing Humor

Humor may surface in numerous and diverse contexts, which at the same time determine how humor works, its form, and its functions and consequences for interlocutors. Adopting a sociolinguistic and discourse analytic perspective, this study is aligned with approaches to humor exploring the variety of humorous genres, the wide range of sociopragmatic functions of humor, and the more or less dissimilar perceptions speakers may have concerning what humor is, what it means, and how it works. The chapters of this book propose a new theoretical approach to the analysis of humor by bringing context into focus. Furthermore, the study explores how we can teach about humor within a critical literacy framework creating classroom space for everyday humorous texts that are part of students’ social realities, and simultaneously taking into account that humor may yield multiple, disparaging, and often conflicting interpretations. This book is intended to appeal to humor researchers from various disciplines (such as linguistics, media studies, cultural studies, literary studies, sociology, anthropology, folklore) as well as to professionals or researchers in education.
