Dear ISHS members,

We are happy to welcome you to the Online Humour special interest group!

As you might have guessed from its title, our SIG studies humour that emerges in online contexts. The questions that we ask address:
the globalisation / localisation of humour,
interactional aspects and metapragmatics of creating and sharing humour,
humour and hate speech,
genres of online humour, etc.

The group aims at connecting researchers from different countries and disciplinary backgrounds. The collaboration within the group is focused on developing new interdisciplinary methodologies and giving an impulse to initiate joint research projects.

The group welcomes everyone interested in online humour, and encourages students and early career researchers to join. If you are interested in joining, please email us at liisi@folklore.ee or anastasiya.fiadotava@folklore.ee, and don’t forget to post anything that is related to our topic!

May your holiday season be full of joy and funny memesSmile

[font='Segoe UI', 'Segoe UI Web (West European)', 'Segoe UI', -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif]I'm Dr Nicole Graham and I am currently a Lecturer in Ethics and Values at King's College London and the Media Officer of the Humour and Religion Network. My teaching and research examines the relationship of humour and religion; the ethics of laughter and humour; and the place of offence, including blasphemy, in contemporary society. I have written on the ethics of laughter during game-playing (2020) and the acceptability of laughter in the early Christian tradition (2022) and have a number of things in the works on humour and religion - so keep an eye out in 2024! [/font]
