Description
Key Features
The Language of Humour examines linguistic patterns and stylistic functions across schoolyard jokes, graffiti, aphorisms, and advertisements with scholarly rigour.
Routledge's analysis covers puns, parodies, anecdotes, and passages of comic fiction, demonstrating how language creates humorous effects in multiple contexts.
This book connects linguistic structures to social and cultural contexts, helping readers understand why certain language choices produce comic impact.
Designed for linguistics students and language enthusiasts, The Language of Humour provides practical frameworks for analysing humour in everyday communication and literature.
