Meeting Description:

Humour is a multifaceted phenomenon that relies on human attributes such as
perception, cognition and emotions. It is an everyday reality and occurs in
all sorts of contexts and, for this reason, humour is a subject that has
awakened the interest of scholars from a wide variety of disciplines, and,
consequently, studies on humour have been carried out in different fields of
science such as linguistics, sociology, psychology, education or medicine, to
name a few.

In particular, there is a burgeoning interest in humorous discourse from a
linguistic and interactive perspective and research on this issue has brought
fascinating results (see Norrick & Chiaro, 2009; Chovanec & Tsakona, 2018;
Yus, 2018; Attardo, 2019; Ruiz Gurillo, 2019). In this vein, this panel deals
with the role of humour in different interactive settings. Contributions to
this panel will take a pragmatic angle when analysing different interactive
humour genres and they will show that humour is an intrinsically human
phenomenon based on the ambiguity that crosses many lines and boundaries,
including gender, age or ethnicity.


Call for Papers: 

In this panel, we welcome linguistic (and especially pragmatic) approaches to
humour, which considers any of the aspects listed below, or other aspects not
mentioned:
-Gender and identity construction through humour in interaction
- The development of children’s verbal humour
- Humour and linguistic disorders
-Communicative strategies in interactional humour
-Humour in social networking sites (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram...).
-Humour in comments (to social networking site entries, to videos, to pieces
of
news...).
-Humour in instant messaging conversations.

All submissions have to be made via the IPrA Website, as indicated on the CFP
webpage (https://pragmatics.international/page/CfP).
