Spass Verstehen (German, Hardcover, Reprint 2016 ed.)

The volume investigates various genres and types of activity associated with joking in everyday interaction situations. It is an attempt to distinguish characteristic differences between teasing, joshing, leg-pulling, parody, irony, dry humour and many other activities, and to identify the inference processes involved in 'getting the joke'. Dimensions of playful communication given special emphasis are its function as a relation indicator and as an expression of creativity and originality.
