Engaging and spirited, this essay collection examines Australian national humor-from the high and low to the classic and the cutting-edge-in literature, performances, and daily life. Leading scholars in Australian literature and culture additionally explore how this humor affects Australian national identity and worldview and what overall role it plays in the social and cultural landscape.
