Index
This collection offers an exciting overview of British TV comedies, ranging from the beginnings
of sitcoms in the 1950s to the current boom of ‘Britcoms . it provides in-depth analyses of major
comedies, systematically addressing their aesthetic properties, filmic history, humour politics
and cultural impact. Understanding TV comedies as powerful cultural media, the volume
explores their role in the often provocative negotiation of social controversies and cultural
concepts such as class, gender, ethnicity, sexuality, family and work. Some of the key questions
that are addressed include: How does comedy use symbolic codes and images to negotiate
new social and cultural issues? How and to what end is humour used? How do the dynamics
of seriality connect to media and popular culture? And what is the role of the British television
industry and marketing strategies? By examining these and other questions, the volume opens
new vistas in the field of media and television studies. The volume brings together international
experts in the field and represents essential reading for those interested in British TV comedy
or in theories of comedy and television.
Jürgen Kamm taught at the Universities of Wuppertal and Dresden, Germany, before moving
to the University of Passau, where he has been teaching English literature and culture since
1996. He is editor of Twentieth-Century Theatre and Drama in English (1999) and was co-editor
of the journal for the Study of British Cultures (2002-2009).
Birgit Neumann is Professor of Anglophone Literatures at the University of Duesseldorf,
Germany; she had guest professorships at the Universities of Cornell/lthaca and Wisconsin-
Madison, USA. She is editor of books such as Cultures of Emotion in 18th-Century Britain (2015,
with Barbara Schmidt-Haberkamp) and A History of British Poetry (2015, with Sibylle Baumbach
and Ansgar Nünning).
