    "In this accessible book, Delia Chiaro provides a fresh overview of the language of jokes in a globalized and digitalized world. The book shows how, while on the one hand the lingua-cultural nuts and bolts of jokes have remained unchanged over time, on the other, the time-space compression brought about by modern technology has generated new settings and new ways of joking and playing with language. The Language of Jokes in the Digital Age covers a wide range of settings from social networks, e-mails and memes, to more traditional fields of film and TV (especially sitcoms and game shows) and advertising. Chiaro's consideration of the increasingly virtual context of jokes delights with both up-to-date examples and frequent reference to the most central theories of comedy. This lively book will be essential reading for any student or researcher working in the area of language and humour and will be of interest to those in language and media and sociolinguistics."--Provided by publisher.

    A Couple of Soles is a classic comedic romance by the seventeenth-century playwright Li Yu. Tan Chuyu, a poor young scholar, falls in love with the beautiful actress Liu Miaogu. He joins her family’s acting troupe, and, in plays within the play, romance ensues. After Liu’s family attempts to marry her off to a local country squire, she performs a famous scene in which a heroine drowns herself—and then jumps off the stage into a river, followed by Tan. The local river deity rescues the lovers from death by transforming them into a pair of soles. Li balances their romance with the adventures of a retired upright official involving banditry, bribery, and mistaken identity—and who nets and shelters the two fish when they regain human form.Written at a time when China was beginning to recover from the cataclysmic Ming-Qing dynastic transition, A Couple of Soles displays Li’s biting wit as well as his reflections on the concerns of his age, including the dangers of administrative service and the role of theater in society. The play combines witty wordplay and caustic satire with a strong emphasis on traditional moral values. The first major comedy from late imperial China to appear in English translation, A Couple of Soles provides an unparalleled view of the theater in seventeenth-century China. A general introduction and a detailed appendix shed further light on the play and its context Frontmatter -- CONTENTS -- ACKNOWLEDGMENTS -- NOTE ON THE TRANSLATION -- INTRODUCTION / Shen, Jing -- DRAMATIS PERSONAE AND THEIR ROLE CATEGORIES -- PREFACE -- SCENES -- A Couple of Soles -- SCENE 1: MAKING A START -- SCENE 2: BURNING EARS -- SCENE 3: ORGANIZING A TROUPE -- SCENE 4: SPECIAL APPRECIATION -- SCENE 5: PUNISHING BANDITS -- SCENE 6: DECIDING ON A PLAN -- SCENE 7: JOINING THE TROUPE -- SCENE 8: THE BANDITS SET OUT -- SCENE 9: DRAFTING A LETTER -- SCENE 10: BECOMING LEADING MAN -- SCENE 11: THE FOX’S MIGHT135 -- SCENE 12: LUXURIANT ESCAPE -- SCENE 13: THROWING MONEY AROUND -- SCENE 14: EXTORTION -- SCENE 15: TOGETHER IN DEATH -- SCENE 16: DIVINE PROTECTION -- SCENE 17: SCRAMBLING FOR PROFIT -- SCENE 18: THE RETURN TO LIFE -- SCENE 19: RUSTIC NUPTIALS -- SCENE 20: THE SECRET DISPATCH -- SCENE 21: A PARTING GIFT -- SCENE 22: A CUNNING PLAN -- SCENE 23: THE MAKE- BELIEVE HERMIT -- SCENE 24: DEPARTING IN GLORY -- SCENE 25: A PRETEND DEITY -- SCENE 26: PRESENTING THE BOOK -- SCENE 27: DECIDING ON THE PLAYERS -- SCENE 28: A COINCIDENTAL REUNION -- SCENE 29: GRABBING THE CART SHAFTS -- SCENE 30: WINNING THE BATTLE -- SCENE 31: MISTAKEN ARREST -- SCENE 32: A SHOCKING REUNION -- Appendix.

    Biographical note: Giselinde Kuipers, Erasmus University, Rotterdam, The Netherlands

    Main description: This book is the first extensive sociological study of the relationship between humor and social background. Using a combination of interview materials, survey data, and historical materials, it explores the relationship between humor and gender, age, social class, and national differences in the Netherlands and the United States. The exploration of social differences in sense of humor starts off from one specific, and not very prestigious, humorous genre: the joke. Good Humor, Bad Taste explains why jokes are good humor to some, bad taste to others

    Review text: "[...] Good Humor, Bad Tast is an important book"Elliott Oring in: Journal of American Folklore 2009 "This is an insightful and very clearly espressed study of an important social phenomenon ?humor. Besides, it contains, if I may say so without losing cast in Batavia, some very funny jokes."Christie Davies in: American Journal of Sociology 2008 "[...] this is a valuable and insightful contribution to the scholarship on jokes and humor that opens up many possibilities for future research."Moira Smith in: Journal of Folklore Research 2/2008

    When wielded by the white majority, ethnic humor can be used to ridicule and demean marginalized groups. In the hands of ethnic minorities themselves, ethnic humor can work as a site of community building and resistance. In nearly all cases, however, ethnic humor can serve as a window through which to examine the complexities of American race relations. In Ethnic Humor in Multiethnic America, David Gillota explores the ways in which contemporary comic works both reflect and participate in national conversations about race and ethnicity. Gillota investigates the manner in which various humorists respond to multiculturalism and the increasing diversity of the American population. Rather than looking at one or two ethnic groups at a time—as is common scholarly practice—the book focuses on the interplay between humorists from different ethnic communities. While some comic texts project a fantasy world in which diverse ethnic characters coexist in a rarely disputed harmony, others genuinely engage with the complexities and contradictions of multiethnic America. The first chapter focuses on African American comedy with a discussion of such humorists as Paul Mooney and Chris Rock, who tend to reinforce a black/white vision of American race relations. This approach is contrasted to the comedy of Dave Chappelle, who looks beyond black and white and uses his humor to place blackness within a much wider multiethnic context. Chapter 2 concentrates primarily on the Jewish humorists Sarah Silverman, Larry David, and Sacha Baron Cohen—three artists who use their personas to explore the peculiar position of contemporary Jews who exist in a middle space between white and other. In chapter 3, Gillota discusses different humorous constructions of whiteness, from a detailed analysis of South Park to "Blue Collar Comedy" and the blog Stuff White People Like. Chapter 4 is focused on the manner in which animated children’s film and the network situation comedy often project simplified and harmonious visions of diversity. In contrast, chapter 5 considers how many recent works, such as Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle and the Showtime series Weeds, engage with diversity in more complex and productive ways
