Humorous self-censorship strategies on YouTube
This article looks at the semiotics of humorous self-censorship. To this end, selected examples from a corpus of YouTube commentary videos and their respective comment sections are presented and discussed. On the one hand, the analysis focuses on structural aspects of humorous self-censorship signs from various modes (written, spoken, images, emojis, etc.) in their multimodal interplay. On the other hand, we analyze socio-semiotic aspects of our …
Hybrid TV Comedy Genres-The Case of Comedy Panel Shows
As a hybrid genre, comedy panel shows satisfy both the audience’s need for continuity and their desire for innovation by combining two established genres – the panel quiz show and comedy – in novel ways.

The exhibition is composed of seventeen thematic areas, ranging from earnest topics such …
Analyzing scripts in humorous communication
The article looks at the assumption of SSTH/GTVH that two fully or partly overlapping semantic scripts in opposition are central to humorous communication. On empirical and technical grounds, it is suggested that the script analysis should be complemented by identifying additional script constellations, i.e. manipulation within one script, the interplay of more than two scripts, and the collision of scripts from different planes of analysis. Thes…
Spielerische Kommunikation – Zur Bestimmung einer Textsorte
Wissensmuster im humoristischen Diskurs. Ein Beitrag zur Inkongruenztheorie anhand von Monty Python’s Flying Circus
Eines der Untersuchungsfelder pragmatischer Forschung ergibt sich aus der Frage, welche Art von Wissensbeständen die Kommunizierenden in das Kommunikationsereignis einbringen, um das Verständnis mit ihren Kommunikationspartnerinnen zu sichern. In diesem Zusammenhang hat sich in den kommunikativ orientierten Disziplinen eine Vielzahl von Ansätzen entwickelt, für die die Modellierung von Wissensmustern (auch frames, scripts, scenarios, usw.) versch…
