Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oddities in Southern Life and Character A cynic tells us that jokes, like women, rarely grow better as they grow older. Yet we are assured that our best stories are as old as the hills, - come down to us from generation to generation, time out of mind. I take leave to deny both these assumptions. The comic situations in which we may find ourselves have indeed a limit set upon them. But humor, ever-changing and many-sided, is an exhaust-less source of inspiration, adapting itself to prevailing conditions of life with surprising freshness and vitality. There is little in common between the comedy of the French and that of the English; that of the Spaniard is equally remote in its relationship to either, if it possesses any claim to relationship at all; whilst nothing can stick closer to the manner born than the grim, fantastic farce of the Asiatic. The best repartee in the world is Irish; but we do not need the brogue to identify it. Translated into idiomatic English, its examples identify themselves. The same may be said of the Scotch.

Download or read book The Enduring Legacy of Old Southwest Humor written by Edward Piacentino and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2006-02-01 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Old Southwest flourished between 1830 and 1860, but its brand of humor lives on in the writings of Mark Twain, the novels of William Faulkner, the television series The Beverly Hillbillies, the material of comedian Jeff Foxworthy, and even cyberspace, where nonsoutherners can come up to speed on subjects like hickphonics. The first book on its subject, The Enduring Legacy of Old Southwest Humor engages topics ranging from folklore to feminism to the Internet as it pays tribute to a distinctly American comic style that has continued to reinvent itself. The book begins by examining frontier southern humor as manifested in works of Faulkner, Erskine Caldwell, Flannery O’Connor, Eudora Welty, Woody Guthrie, Harry Crews, William Price Fox, Fred Chappell, Barry Hannah, Cormac McCarthy, and African American writers Zora Neale Hurston, Ralph Ellison, Alice Walker, Ishmael Reed, and Yusef Komunyakaa. It then explores southwestern humor’s legacy in popular culture—including comic strips, comedians, and sitcoms—and on the Internet. Many of the trademark themes of modern and contemporary southern wit appeared in stories that circulated in the antebellum Southwest. Often taking the form of tall tales, those stories have served and continue to serve as rich, reusable material for southern writers and entertainers in the twentieth century and beyond. The Enduring Legacy of Old Southwest Humor is an innovative collaboration that delves into jokes about hunting, drinking, boasting, and gambling as it studies, among other things, the styles of comedians Andy Griffith, Dave Gardner, and Justin Wilson. It gives splendid demonstration that through the centuries southern humor has continued to be a powerful tool for disarming hypocrites and opening up sensitive issues for discussion.
