In \u003cem\u003eComical Modernity\u003c\/em\u003e, Heidi Hakkarainen looks at Vienna in the second half of the nineteenth century, a period of dramatic urban renewal during which the city's rapidly changing face was a mainstay of humorous magazines, books, and other publications aimed at middle-class audiences. As she shows, humor provided a widely accessible means of negotiating an era of radical change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Heidi Hakkarainen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1789202736\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781789202731\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berghahn Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/11\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.22lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.69d","brand":"Heidi Hakkarainen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44245325545727,"sku":"9781789202731","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e33ef5bf-d7d4-40ba-ae31-9e18cb1301d8.jpg?v=1693927404","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/comical-modernity-heidi-hakkarainen-9781789202731","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
