O ovoj e-knjizi

Absurdity Explained explores the concept of absurdity and its deep-seated influence on humor across history and modern society. It examines the philosophical roots of absurdity, particularly the conflict between our search for meaning and the apparent meaninglessness of the universe, as seen in the works of philosophers like Albert Camus. The book argues that humor born from the absurd acts as a coping mechanism and a form of social commentary.

Did you know that absurd humor has been used to critique power structures and challenge societal norms throughout history? The book progresses by first establishing the philosophical basis, then moving into a historical analysis of absurdity in humor, from ancient satire to early modern plays. Finally, it delves into contemporary uses, such as stand-up comedy and internet memes, revealing how modern comedians use absurdity to comment on today's political and technological landscapes.

By bridging historical perspectives with modern applications, this book provides unique insights into how societies use comedy to grapple with existential questions and established norms.
