Title English Humor Understanding Based on Embodied Philosophy

Abstract

There are various theories used for the analysis of humor understanding. However, the more perspectives we study, the more difficult we will understand humor and the theories. The paper illustrates the advantages of Embodied Philosophy compared with the previous studies on humor understanding, and analyzes some English humor speeches (classified into situational humor and non-situational humor) based on the three principles of Lakoff and Johnson’s Embodied Philosophy: the embodied mind, the cognitive unconsciousness, and metaphorical thought. It aims to offer a relatively more comprehensive and an easier-mastered theory towards humor understanding.

1.1 Need for the Study

In recent years, humor, laden with culture and happiness, has penetrated into nearly every nook of our life, and since it is useful for those who are longing for a real mastery of a language, the study of how to understand humor deeply enjoys great popularity. However, although there are numerous studies on humor and each have their own perspective, the more perspectives we study, and the more difficult we will understand humor. As a result, the paper aims to offer readers a more comprehensive and an easier-mastered theory used to analyze humor understanding. 基于体验哲学的英语幽默理解:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_76568.html
