Summary: "This volume has been conceived to explore two important aspects of human existence: humour and self-translation, a virtually unexplored area of research in both Humour Studies and Translation Studies. A variety of international scholars has contributed to this volume by examining literary texts from several standpoints (e.g., sociological, philosophical, post-colonial, etc.) while others have examined this practice in contexts that are traditionally not associated with it, such as stand-up comedy and language learning. This book sheds light on how humour in self-translation can encourage reflection on social issues, challenge stereotypes, contribute to recast individuals in novel forms of identity, facilitate our reflection on our own sense of humour, and so forth. The book is accessible and engaging and can be of interest to advanced students and researchers in Translation Studies and Humour Studies"-- Provided by publisher

内容説明・目次

内容説明

This book explores an important aspect of human existence: humor in self-translation, a virtually unexplored area of research in Humour Studies and Translation Studies. Of the select group of international scholars contributing to this volume some examine literary texts from different perspectives (sociological, philosophical, or post-colonial) while others explore texts in more extraneous fields such as standup comedy or language learning. This book sheds light on how humour in self-translation induces thoughts on social issues, challenges stereotypes, contributes to recast individuals in novel forms of identity and facilitates reflections on our own sense of humour. This accessible and engaging volume is of interest to advanced students of Humour Studies and Translation Studies.
