Abstract:

This is the first-ever book-length collection of articles on the subject of
prosody and humor. The chapters are written by the recognized leaders in the
field and present the cutting edge of the research in this new
interdisciplinary field of study. The book covers a broad range of languages,
using several theoretical approaches, ranging from cognitive semantic
theories, to discourse analysis, and anthropology. All the contributions are
anchored in instrumental empirical data analysis. The topics covered range
from humor in conversation, to sitcom scripts, from riddles to intonation
jokes, from irony in a laboratory setting to irony occurring in conversation,
from friends’ conversations in France, to business meetings in rural Brazil.
The unifying theme is the search for markers of the humorous or ironical
intentions of the speakers or of the genre of interaction. Originally
published in Pragmatics & Cognition 19:2 (2011) and 19:3 (2011).
