August 2018 Lea Nüske Zusammenfassung Die vorliegende Arbeit Comedy as Resistance – Indian Stand-Up Comedians and Their Fight Against India’s Anti-Democratic Tendencies beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, ob und inwiefern Stand-Up Comedy in Indien als Mittel zum sozio-politischen Widerstand genutzt wird und wie weitreichend dieser Widerstand einzuschätzen ist. Um diese Frage zu beantworten werden zunächst die Merkmale des Genres sowie ihre Funktionen untersucht, um herauszustellen, weshalb sich besonders Stand-Up Comedy dafür eignet, indirekten politischen Widerstand zu leisten. Auch die Geschichte des satirischen Widerstandes und des Genres Stand-Up Comedy im indischen Kontext sowie die soziale Spaltung der Gesellschaft, die durch verschiedene Konflikte zum Ausdruck gebracht wird

    Copyright by Vijay Parthasarathy 2017 The Dissertation Committee for Vijay Parthasarathy Certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Birth of the Cool: Global Flows and the Growth of English Language Stand-up Comedy in Mumbai Committee: Shanti Kumar, Supervisor Joe Straubhaar Wenhong Chen Kathleen Tyner Radhika Parameswaran Birth of the Cool: Global Flows and the Growth of English Language Stand-up Comedy in Mumbai by Vijay Parthasarathy Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin August 2017 Dedication For Vanisha and Zadie. Acknowledgements I understand now what it means to birth a dissertation, and I appreciate my mother's labor pains so much more. My father has grown more ebullient since retirement; his curiosity about my work burns bright. I wish to express my deepest thanks to my parents for having let me rebel — mostly sensibly — every single day of my life. I owe much to my advisor, Shanti Kumar, whose intellectual imprint runs riot through every page of this work. Our conversations regarding 'cool cultures' over Skype were remarkably productive (thank you, modernity); he kept me focused on the details and gave me the freedom to explore the big picture. He kept a loose rein on things, offered praise and criticism when apt without striking me over the head with either. I'd recommend him as a mentor. Joe Straubhaar is another committee member whom I cannot praise highly enough.
