Book synopsis
Using a corpus-linguistics approach, this book examines what speakers try to achieve by producing 'laughables' and what hearers are signalling when they produce laughter. It focuses on the tactical use of humour to achieve specific rhetorical ends. It also considers the implications these observations may have about humour theory in general.
