Re: [Humorology] Hello

Hi Ciara --

Welcome. Glad to hear about your interest in humor, and your topic sounds interesting.

The first thing comes to mind for me is the work of Gregory Bateson. He wrote quite a bit on non-verbal communication, and even one paper from a conference dialog on humor called "The Position of Humor in Human Communication". I haven't been able to find an electronic copy of this anywhere -- if you do, please let me know.

Hello everyone. I'm Ciara, and I'm a senior student from the University
of the Philippines. I'm taking up Speech Communication, and I am
currently working on my undergraduate thesis. I'm just starting and
looking for material on humor. My topic goes into how male and female
college students in my university use humor in their everyday
conversations, in terms of paralanguage, nonverbal cues, language use.

I was wondering if you could suggest some studies, references, and
other materials that I could use for my research. :)

Thank you very much, and thank you for accepting me into this group.

Ciara
