Description

This book details the evolution of Jewish humor, highlighting its long history from the period of the Bible to the present day, and includes a wide spectrum of styles that are expressed in various works and fields, including the Bible, the Talmud, poetry, literature, folklore, jokes, movies, and television series.

It focuses upon three socio-geographic regions where the majority of Jewish people lived during the 18th to 21st centuries and where Jewish humor was created, developed and thrived: Eastern Europe, the United States and Israel.

The text is a complicated mosaic based on three central components of Jewish life: historical experience, survival, and wisdom.

It shows that one cannot understand Jewish humor without referring to the various factors which led the Jewish people to create their unusual sense of humor.
