Abstract:

Recent years have seen a burgeoning interest in interactional humour
from social and pragmatic perspectives, with fascinating results.
Released more than a decade later than Norrick and Chiaro (2009)
<i>Humor in Interaction</i>, <i>The Pragmatics of Humour in
Interactive Contexts</i> gathers some of the most recent work on
humour in interaction, with contributions taking (meta)pragmatic
approaches to the analysis of various genres of interactive humour in
both online and offline settings. This volume illustrates that a range
of methodologies and perspectives can be applied to the study of such
a complex phenomenon. These include analyses with a cognitive
orientation and with multimodal approaches, work based on Relevance
Theory, the General Theory of Verbal Humour, and Conversation
Analysis, among others. In addition, all the authors represented here
are recognised experts on the subject, and in most cases, are leading
specialists in their respective fields. The book can be of use not
only to scholars who study the linguistics of humour in interaction
but also to students who wish to pursue research in the area.
