Description

Explore the deep connection between humor and Chinese society in this academic study from Routledge. This book offers a unique psychological perspective on how humor functions within Chinese culture, tracing its evolution through history. By examining the influences of Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism, the text provides a foundation for understanding how humor is perceived in these traditional frameworks. Readers will gain insights through a comparative analysis that looks at the differences between Western and Chinese perceptions of humor. The book uses empirical studies to examine these cultural variations and investigates the specific origins of Chinese ambivalence toward humor. Through presented empirical findings, this work provides a detailed look at the psychological reality of humor in Asian behavioral sciences. It is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in anthropology, sociology, and the psychological nuances of cultural expression.
