Beskrivning
The book shows how humor has changed since the advent of the internet: new genres, new contexts, and new audiences. The book provides a guide to such phenomena as memes, video parodies, photobombing, and cringe humor. Included are also in-depth discussions of the humor in phenomena such as Dogecoin, the joke currency, and the use of humor by the alt-right. It also shows how the cognitive mechanisms of humor remain unchanged. Written by a well-known specialist in humor studies, the book is engaging and readable, but also based on extensive scholarship.

Recensioner i media

“As the preeminent scholar on language and humor, Attardo takes readers on a fascinating tour of various forms of internet humor. With examples ranging from the prosaic to the political, Attardo shows us how the human capacity to produce and interpret humor – while remaining fundamentally unchanged – has been fully exploited in the realm of the digital.” — Camilla Vásquez, PhD, Professor of Applied Linguistics & Associate Editor, Discourse, Context & Media, Department of World Languages, University of South Florida, Tampa, FL
