Humour
World rights available
Of all human qualities, humour is perhaps the most puzzling. In thisfirst mainstream history of humour, William Hartston looks at everyaspect of the evolution of humour and our attitudes towards it witha view to developing a proper Theory Of Everything Humorous.
From jokes in ancient Rome to laughter in the Bible, and from thesecret of comic delivery to how humour changed following theAmerican civil war, William leaves no stone unturned in his questto understand what makes us chuckle. Besides being academicallywell-founded – and unlike almost everything else written on thesubject – A History of Humour is also entertaining.
WILLIAM HARTSTON is a journalist, the author of 25 books and writer of the popular Beachcomber column in the Daily Express. He is also known for his television appearances, including Channel4’s Gogglebox.
