Sinopsis

Joke Structure explores the science and art behind what makes jokes funny, dissecting the elements that lead to either laughter or silence. It examines how jokes frequently rely on incongruity resolution, where expectations are set up only to be surprisingly subverted. The book also highlights the importance of tension and release in comedic timing, demonstrating how a well-crafted setup builds anticipation for the punchline. Ultimately, it stresses the subjective nature of humor, influenced by cultural background, psychology, and personal experience.

 
The book progresses from establishing a theoretical framework, drawing on linguistics, psychology, and sociology, to deconstructing the anatomy of a joke. It explores comedic devices like puns, irony, and satire, and delves into cultural context, ethical considerations, and practical applications.

 
A unique aspect of this guide is its integrated approach, combining theoretical analysis with practical guidance, making it valuable for comedians, writers, speakers, educators, and anyone interested in understanding and creating better jokes.
