The Anatomy of Laughter cover

This volume consists of a selection of the papers given at a major conference, The Anatomy of Laughter/Traduire le Rire, held in September 2001. It focuses on the latter aspect of observations of the situations in which laughter is expressed, and stresses the acoustic features of laughter.

An accessible and educative collection... provides much more than a visitation of standard methodologies, and it does much more than merely celebrate laughter as cognitive, linguistic, or aesthetic function. An indispensable collection for the serious humour scholar. -- Tarez Samra Graban Canadian Review of Comparative Literature December 2010, 428-31
