This book examines social aspects of humour relating to the
judiciary, judicial behaviour, and judicial work across different
cultures and eras, identifying how traditionally recorded wit and
humorous portrayals of judges reflect social attitudes to the
judiciary over time. It contributes to cultural studies and social
science/socio-legal studies of both humour and the role of emotions
in the judiciary and in judging. It explores the surprisingly
varied intersections between humour and the judiciary in several
legal systems: judges as the target of humour; legal decisions
regulating humour; the use of humour to manage aspects of judicial
work and courtroom procedure; and judicial/legal figures and
customs featuring in comic and satiric entertainment through the
ages. Delving into the multi-layered connections between the
seriousness of the work of the judiciary on the one hand, and the
lightness of humour on the other hand, this fascinating collection
will be of particular interest to scholars of the legal system, the
criminal justice system, humour studies, and cultural studies.
