Bergson’s concept of ‘mechanical inelasticity’ from his influential essay Laughter (1900, 2010, 5) remains a staple of comic theory. Bergson’s focus was on what impels laughter in social contexts. In viewing the raising of laughter as a process, i.e.... Read More about Waves of laughter : comic surfing on Bergson’s mechanical inelasticity.
