abstract = {Recent Anglo-American philosophical aesthetics analyses
humour in terms of three major accounts: the incongruity theory, the
superiority theory and the relief from tension theory, whose formerly
supposed rivalry have recently been questioned in favour of their complementarity.
Focusing mainly on the incongruity and superiority theory,
and by following Pirandello’s humourism, my aim is to defend the possibility,
compromised by the implications of these accounts, of humour
having actual cognitive and practical impact, challenging prejudices and
social norms, often dangerous stereotypes that humiliate and stigmatize
weak and vulnerable people.},
