| Zusammenfassung: | This volume highlights humour?s crucial role in shaping historical re-visions of the long nineteenth century, through modes ranging from subtle irony, camp excess, ribald farce, and aesthetic parody to blackly comic narrative games. It analyses neo-Victorian humour?s politicisation, its ideological functions and ethical implications across varied media, including fiction, drama, film, webcomics, and fashion. Contemporary humour maps the assumed distance between postmodernity and its targeted nineteenth-century referents only to repeatedly collapse the same in a seemingly self-defeating nihilistic project. This collection explores how neo-Victorian humour generates empathy and effective socio-political critique, dispensing symbolic justice, but also risks recycling the past?s invidious ideologies under the politically correct guise of comic debunking, even to the point of negating laughter itself. |

Contemporary humour maps the assumed distance between postmodernity and its targeted nineteenth-century referents only to repeatedly collapse the same in a seemingly self-defeating nihilistic project. This collection explores how neo-Victorian humour generates empathy and effective socio-political critique, dispensing symbolic justice, but also risks recycling the past?s invidious ideologies under the politically correct guise of comic debunking, even to the point of negating laughter itself.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">English fiction</subfield><subfield code="y">20th century</subfield><subfield code="x">History and criticism.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">English fiction</subfield><subfield code="y">21st century</subfield><subfield code="x">History and criticism.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Comic, The, in literature.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh97005892</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Arts, Victorian</subfield><subfield code="x">Influence.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Black humor.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85014576</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Humor in literature.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh95003235</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Steampunk culture.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009010579</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Roman anglais</subfield><subfield code="y">20e siècle</subfield><subfield code="x">Histoire et critique.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Roman anglais</subfield><subfield code="y">21e siècle</subfield><subfield code="x">Histoire et critique.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Comique dans la littérature.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Arts victoriens</subfield><subfield code="x">Influence.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Humour noir.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Steampunk (Mouvement)</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">LITERARY CRITICISM</subfield><subfield code="x">European</subfield><subfield code="x">English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Novela inglesa</subfield><subfield code="y">s.20</subfield><subfield code="x">Historia y crítica</subfield><subfield code="2">embne</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Novela inglesa</subfield><subfield code="y">s.21</subfield><subfield code="x">Historia y crítica</subfield><subfield code="2">embne</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Humor</subfield><subfield code="x">En la literatura</subfield><subfield code="2">embne</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Black humor</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Comic, The, in literature</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">English fiction</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Humor in literature</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Steampunk culture</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="648" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">1900-2099</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Electronic books.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Criticism, interpretation, etc.</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Kohlke, Marie-Luise.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Gutleben, Christian.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">Neo-Victorian humour (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCFK79TVR6jHcJqj6Bh8PV3</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="t">Neo-Victorian humour.</subfield><subfield code="d">Leiden ;

Farrell's The Siege of Krishnapur; Index. This volume highlights humour?s crucial role in shaping historical re-visions of the long nineteenth century, through modes ranging from subtle irony, camp excess, ribald farce, and aesthetic parody to blackly comic narrative games. It analyses neo-Victorian humour?s politicisation, its ideological functions and ethical implications across varied media, including fiction, drama, film, webcomics, and fashion. Contemporary humour maps the assumed distance between postmodernity and its targeted nineteenth-century referents only to repeatedly collapse the same in a seemingly self-defeating nihilistic project. This collection explores how neo-Victorian humour generates empathy and effective socio-political critique, dispensing symbolic justice, but also risks recycling the past?s invidious ideologies under the politically correct guise of comic debunking, even to the point of negating laughter itself.
