| Zusammenfassung: | Widely publicized in mass media worldwide, high-profile tragedies and celebrity scandals, the untimely deaths of Michael Jackson and Princess Diana, the embarrassing affairs of Tiger Woods and President Clinton, the 9/11 attacks or the Challenger space shuttle explosion, often provoke nervous laughter and black humor. If in the past this snarky folklore may have been shared among friends and uttered behind closed doors, today the Internet's ubiquity and instant interactivity propels such humor across a much more extensive and digitally mediated discursive space. New media not only let more people "in on the joke," but they have also become the "go-to" formats for engaging in symbolic interaction, especially in times of anxiety or emotional suppression, by providing users an expansive forum for humorous, combative, or intellectual communication, including jokes that cross the line of propriety and good taste. Moving through engaging case studies of Internet-derived humor about momentous disasters in recent American popular culture and history, this book chronicles how and why new media have become a predominant means of vernacular expression. The author argues that computer-mediated communication has helped to compensate for users' sense of physical detachment in the "real" world, while generating newly meaningful and dynamic opportunities for the creation and dissemination of folklore. Drawing together recent developments in new media studies with the analytical tools of folklore studies, he makes a strong case for the significance to contemporary folklore of technologically driven trends in folk and mass culture. -- From publisher's website. |

Moving through engaging case studies of Internet-derived humor about momentous disasters in recent American popular culture and history, this book chronicles how and why new media have become a predominant means of vernacular expression. The author argues that computer-mediated communication has helped to compensate for users' sense of physical detachment in the "real" world, while generating newly meaningful and dynamic opportunities for the creation and dissemination of folklore. Drawing together recent developments in new media studies with the analytical tools of folklore studies, he makes a strong case for the significance to contemporary folklore of technologically driven trends in folk and mass culture. -- From publisher's website.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="588" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Print version record.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Folklore and the Internet.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009006639</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Folklore.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85050104</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Folklore et Internet.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Folklore.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">folklore (culture-related concept)</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">SOCIAL SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Folklore & Mythology.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Folklore and the Internet</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">The last laugh (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCGX44cYX8XHgTgHc64YkWC</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Blank, Trevor J.</subfield><subfield code="t">Last laugh.</subfield><subfield code="d">Madison : The University of Wisconsin Press, ©2013</subfield><subfield code="z">9780299292041</subfield><subfield code="w">(DLC) 2012032669</subfield><subfield code="w">(OCoLC)809454959</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="830" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Folklore studies in a multicultural world.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2012054360</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="0"><subfield code="l">FWS01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=604842</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Internet Archive</subfield><subfield code="b">INAR</subfield><subfield code="n">lastlaughfolkhum0000blan</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Coutts Information Services</subfield><subfield code="b">COUT</subfield><subfield code="n">25835485</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBL - Ebook Library</subfield><subfield code="b">EBLB</subfield><subfield code="n">EBL3445345</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">ebrary</subfield><subfield code="b">EBRY</subfield><subfield code="n">ebr10729507</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBSCOhost</subfield><subfield code="b">EBSC</subfield><subfield code="n">604842</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">ProQuest MyiLibrary Digital eBook Collection</subfield><subfield code="b">IDEB</subfield><subfield code="n">cis25835485</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Project MUSE</subfield><subfield code="b">MUSE</subfield><subfield code="n">muse25299</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">YBP Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">YANK</subfield><subfield code="n">9997426</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="994" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">92</subfield><subfield code="b">GEBAY</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="912" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="049" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">DE-863</subfield></datafield></record></collection> |

Introduction: cyberspace, technology, and mass media in the twenty-first century -- Searching for connections: how and why we use new media for vernacular expression -- Changing technologies, changing tastes: the evolution of humor and mass-mediated disasters in the late twentieth century -- From 9/11 to the death of bin Laden: vernacular expression and the emergence of web 2.0 -- "Intimate strangers": the folk response to celebrity death and falls from grace -- From sports hero to supervillain: or, how Tiger Woods wrecked his car(eer) -- Dethroning the king of pop: Michael Jackson and the humor of death -- Laughing to death: tradition, vernacular expression, and American culture in the digital age -- Afterword: predictions on future trajectories of vernacular expression and new media. Widely publicized in mass media worldwide, high-profile tragedies and celebrity scandals, the untimely deaths of Michael Jackson and Princess Diana, the embarrassing affairs of Tiger Woods and President Clinton, the 9/11 attacks or the Challenger space shuttle explosion, often provoke nervous laughter and black humor. If in the past this snarky folklore may have been shared among friends and uttered behind closed doors, today the Internet's ubiquity and instant interactivity propels such humor across a much more extensive and digitally mediated discursive space. New media not only let more people "in on the joke," but they have also become the "go-to" formats for engaging in symbolic interaction, especially in times of anxiety or emotional suppression, by providing users an expansive forum for humorous, combative, or intellectual communication, including jokes that cross the line of propriety and good taste. Moving through engaging case studies of Internet-derived humor about momentous disasters in recent American popular culture and history, this book chronicles how and why new media have become a predominant means of vernacular expression. The author argues that computer-mediated communication has helped to compensate for users' sense of physical detachment in the "real" world, while generating newly meaningful and dynamic opportunities for the creation and dissemination of folklore. Drawing together recent developments in new media studies with the analytical tools of folklore studies, he makes a strong case for the significance to contemporary folklore of technologically driven trends in folk and mass culture. -- From publisher's website.
