Sinopsis

"Unplanned Comedy" explores the fascinating world of unintentional humor found in history, film, and television. It delves into moments where serious events unexpectedly become comedic, offering a unique perspective on political gaffes, media blunders, and on-set accidents. This book examines why we laugh at the unexpected, revealing insights into societal norms and human fallibility.

 
One intriguing aspect is how historical events, initially perceived seriously, gain comedic value over time. Another is the way live broadcast errors or unscripted moments can become legendary, blurring the lines between reality and performance.

 
The book approaches the topic by defining "unplanned comedy" and distinguishing it from intentional forms of humor like satire. It then investigates the psychological and sociological reasons behind our amusement. Progressing from historical and political contexts to the film and television industry, the book analyzes examples ranging from diplomatic incidents turned comedic fodder to on-set accidents in movies. It supports its analysis with archival footage, transcripts, and interviews, offering a comprehensive overview of how unintentional comedy shapes our perception of the world.

    Faith - A Very Short Introduction

    What is faith? It usually means religious belief, and sometimes diverse religions are grouped together as "faiths," with reference to "faith leaders" or "faith schools." What we have faith in matters, and that involves our reason, involving claims to truths that affect everyone. Faith is not just a personal attribute, like tastes, but should be open to public examination and debate. 
     
     
     
    In this Very Short Introduction, Roger Trigg argues that all faith needs reason. He puts contemporary discussions into historical perspective, particularly in the context of Christianity. The author argues that faith also involves a commitment to action and that matters for all social life. Because religion is typically directed at what is seen as of crucial importance for human life, faith should not be marginalized or privatized. It will permeate every idea of how people should behave, and has a role in the public square, however respectful it should be to competing views within a democracy.
