Subject: studies on jokes (5)
***********************************************************

When I was in graduate school, our linguistics professor, Victor Raskin,
tested jokes on us in class, then explained how they work. That year, he
published the first book below. It would be interesting to see how his
theories work with Chinese humor.

(1) Semantic Mechanisms of Humor, Victor Raskin (Author)
(2) The Primer of Humor Research, Victor Raskin (Editor)
(3) A Source Book of Literary and Philosophical Writings About Humour and
Laughter: The Seventy-Five Essential Texts from Antiquity to Modern Times,
Jorge Figueroa-Dorrego (Editor), Cristina Larkin-galinanes (Editor),
Victor Raskin (Foreword)
