About this title

Synopsis

There is a burgeoning interest in humorous discourse from a gender perspective, and research on this issue has brought fascinating results. However, despite the literature on language and gender, the study of these dimensions in humorous discourses remains virtually unchartered territory. Consequently, this book stems from the interest in exploring gender and identity in different humorous discourses taken from Spanish, English and German corpora in order to explore how gender and identity can be represented and performed through humour.
