摘要

本文探讨了体育如何在查尔斯-亚当斯（Charles Addams）和加里-拉尔森（Gary Larson）的单幅漫画中阐明其幽默的达达主义基础。文章还探讨了亚当斯和拉尔森对体育的处理如何揭示了特定的幽默理论，并阐明了他们将体育视为人类活动和社会制度的观点。最后，本文认为，亚当斯和拉尔森描绘体育的方式表明，对待生活的适当方式很可能就是禅宗所特有的滑稽和游戏的方式。虽然亚当斯和拉尔森的体育漫画构成了一个荒诞不经的剧场，但最终也给我们带来了解脱的启迪。

Sport in the Cartoons of Charles Addams and Gary Larson: A Theater of Ludic Absurdity

This article examines how sport illuminates the Dadaist foundations of Charles Addams’s and Gary Larson’s humor in their single-panel cartoons. The article also considers how Addams’s and Larson’s treatment of sport sheds light on particular theories of humor and elucidates their view of sport as human endeavor and social institution. Ultimately, this article argues that Addams and Larson portray sport in a way that suggests that the appropriate mode by which to approach life may well be the comic and playful one that characterizes Zen Buddhism. While the sport cartoons of Addams and Larson constitute a theater of ludic absurdity, in the end, they also offer us liberating enlightenment.

期刊介绍： Welcome to the home of Studies in American Humor, the journal of the American Humor Studies Association. Founded by the American Humor Studies Association in 1974 and published continuously since 1982, StAH specializes in humanistic research on humor in America (loosely defined) because the universal human capacity for humor is always expressed within the specific contexts of time, place, and audience that research methods in the humanities strive to address. Such methods now extend well beyond the literary and film analyses that once formed the core of American humor scholarship to a wide range of critical, biographical, historical, theoretical, archival, ethnographic, and digital studies of humor in performance and public life as well as in print and other media. StAH’s expanded editorial board of specialists marks that growth. On behalf of the editorial board, I invite scholars across the humanities to submit their best work on topics in American humor and join us in advancing knowledge in the field.
