Humour, Comedy and Laughter: Obscenities, Paradoxes, Insights and the Renewal of Life - Social Identities

Anthropological writings on humour are not numerous, but they do contain insight into the social processes that underlie joking and laughter. This volume examines the cognitive, social, and moral aspects of humour and its potential to bring about a sense of mutual understanding, even among different and possibly hostile people.
