摘要

一些喜剧演员指责当代喜剧观众过于道德敏感,无法欣赏幽默。为了更接近答案,我将首先简要介绍在非哲学文献中发现的关于受众敏感性的争论。其次,我转向哲学文献,从“有趣”是一种依赖于反应的属性这一观点开始。我对这种对“有趣”的反应依赖的解释提出了批评,我认为有趣不是由普通观众真正笑的东西决定的,而是由值得笑的东西决定的。第三,我认为过度或缺乏道德敏感性会扭曲观众对幽默的接受程度。第四,我会向那些理想的敏感受众推荐候选人。最后,我回到对笑话过度敏感或不敏感的特定案例,看看我们可能会如何判断它们。

What Could It Mean to Say That Today's Stand-Up Audiences Are Too Sensitive?

Contemporary comedy audiences are accused by some comedians of being too morally sensitive to appreciate humor. To get closer to an answer, I will first briefly present the argument over audience sensitivity as found in the nonphilosophical literature. Second, I then turn to the philosophical literature and begin from the idea that “funny” is a response-dependent property. I present a criticism of this response-dependence account of “funny” based in the claim that funniness is not determined by what normal audiences actually laugh at, but by what merits laughter. Third, I argue that excessive or deficient moral sensitivity distorts audience receptivity to humor. Fourth, I turn to candidates for ideally sensitive audiences. I conclude by returning to the particular cases of supposed oversensitivity or undersensitivity to jokes to see how we might judge them.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism publishes current research articles, symposia, special issues, and timely book reviews in aesthetics and the arts. The term aesthetics, in this connection, is understood to include all studies of the arts and related types of experience from a philosophic, scientific, or other theoretical standpoint. The arts are taken to include not only the traditional forms such as music, literature, landscape architecture, dance, painting, architecture, sculpture, and other visual arts, but also more recent additions such as photography, film, earthworks, performance and conceptual art, the crafts and decorative arts, contemporary digital innovations, and other cultural practices, including work and activities in the field of popular culture.
