In what ways is comedy subversive? By viewing comedy as both a constitutive feature of social interaction and as a necessary requirement in the appraisal of what is often deemed to be 'politically correct', this book provides an innovative and multidisciplinary approach to the study of comedy and popular culture.
Jack Black is a Senior Lecturer at Sheffield Hallam University. After completing his postgraduate studies at Loughborough University, his research has continued to explore the interrelationships between sociology, media and communications and cultural studies. Drawing upon 'traditional' media forms (newspaper analysis) as well as television and film studies, Jack's published work provides an interdisciplinary approach to the study of ideology, politics and power in both the media and popular culture.
