内容説明

-examines the relationship between Brexit and its comedy, exploring how Brexit and comedy are connected in both Leave and Remain discourse -argues that both populism and comedy are rhetorical in nature and so are linked through their semantic structure and communicative potential -the author analyses the populism that has emerged from those incongruities in the form of ironic, ambiguous and dichotomous discourse -provides not just an advance in our understanding of political satire but also a clearer description of the nature of populism
