Through the case study of select Dalit stand-up acts of artists like Manpreet Sarkar, Sanjay Rajoura, and Neha Thombre, this paper analyses how Dalit stand-up comedy as a performing art offers a potent minority perspective on caste, hegemony, and upper-caste elitism. It traces the evolution of Dalit stand-up comedy, pointing out its similarity and differences with the elite mainstream stand-up comedy. The paper foregrounds the radical reimagining of humour wielded as a weapon by Dalit stand-up comedy for sociocultural transformation. It highlights how Dalit marginalisation still exists in India, even in cultural spheres such as stand-up comedy.","PeriodicalId":38662,"journal":{"name":"Comedy Studies","volume":"14 1","pages":"237 - 246"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43150909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article presents a new critical approach to the film. The essay submits that The Ladykillers can be read as a forerunner of neo-Victorian comedy, as it replicates, through strategies of humour, the tensions inherent to the ‘story of difference’ the neo-Victorian ‘project’ attempts to devise. By pitting a set of modern British stock-characters against an impossible embodiment of the Victorian ethos (the character of Mrs. Wilberforce and her house), The Ladykillers both allegorically and metafictionally underlies the contradictions inherent to neo-Victorian comedy. On the one hand, it stages the comic objectification of the Victorian subject, which creates a sense of superiority on behalf of present-day subjectivities; and, on the other, it unfolds its reversal, i.e. the incongruous subduing of the purportedly superior subject to the overpowering Victorian element. The article concludes by assessing the consequences of this reading onto the broader context of cultural identity work.","PeriodicalId":38662,"journal":{"name":"Comedy Studies","volume":"14 1","pages":"224 - 236"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49451715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nigerians have consequently turned to comedy for relief as the country’s comedy content is largely centered on ridiculing politics and inefficiencies of the government. This study, therefore, attempted to ascertain the utility of comedy using as a politically-induced social problem; insecurity as a paradigm. Three (3) politically-induced contemporary comedy shows on YouTube were analyzed using Sentiment Analysis in Nvivo and a search on ‘insecurity’ and/or ‘security’ was initiated. The analysis showed a predominance of neutral comments (53%) followed by negative sentiments (29%) suggesting that most Nigerians remain unperturbed about their tragedies as Comedy remains a tool for comic relief rather than for social change.","PeriodicalId":38662,"journal":{"name":"Comedy Studies","volume":"14 1","pages":"208 - 223"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44323462","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Starting with the profound influence of the masters of comedy of the silent era, Buster Keaton and Charles Chaplin, Andersonian comedy also lines up with the works of masters of classical American Comedy such as Frank Capra, George Cuckor, Ernst Lubitsch, Billy Wilder or Preston Sturges, up to the existentialist tone of some of Woody Allen’s comedies. The present contribution analyses, from the perspective of the History of Cinema, the way in which Andersonian comedy draws on this long tradition, crystalizing in the coalescence of up to five comic subtypes: deadpan humour, slapstick, screwball comedy, verbal humour and parody. The latter is of particular significance, since it is the key to the hybridization of cinematic genres that is one of the traits of Anderson’s playful and postmodern approach as a postmodern auteur. Thus, the second part of the article will explore the genre hybridizations through which the Texan filmmaker resignifies the usual meaning of traditional genre conventions, often for the purpose of achieving a very particular comic effect.","PeriodicalId":38662,"journal":{"name":"Comedy Studies","volume":"5 8","pages":"191 - 207"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41256650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
