Produktbeschreibung

De Gruyter Studies in Philosophy of Humor answers the needs of a burgeoning new field in philosophy. Edited by Lydia Amir, this unique series invites philosophers from various traditions to submit book-length manuscripts, including edited anthologies on humor, laughter, and the comic, and their roles (e.g., epistemological, ethical, aesthetic, political) within the history and practice of philosophy.

Contrary to common opinion, philosophy's relations with the comic are profound and complex, yet surprisingly understudied. Amir conceptualizes the relations that philosophy entertains with the comic in ten traditions, eight dating from antiquity and two from modern and postmodern times. She explains how the view that philosophy is inimical to the comic originated and invites the reader to re-evaluate philosophy's attitude towards the comic.
