    Newfolk NDiF: Making a Big Apple Crumble...Chapter 1 New Directions in Folklore 6 June 2002 Newfolk :: NDiF :: Issue 6 :: Chapter 1 :: Page 1:: Page 2 :: Chapter 2 :: References Making a Big Apple Crumble: The Role of Humor in Constructing a Global Response to Disaster1 Bill Ellis Chapter One: Introduction On the morning of September 11, 2001, terrorists associated with Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida, a fundamentalist Islamic political movement, hijacked four American jetliners. Two were crashed into the twin towers of New York's World Trade Center, causing them to collapse with catastrophic loss of life. A third was crashed into the Pentagon, costing an additional 189 lives, while passengers on a fourth evidently attacked the hijackers, causing the plane to crash in a rural area in western Pennsylvania with the loss of all 44 persons aboard. Much of the drama was played out live on national television, including the crash of the second plane into the South Tower at 9:03 AM and both towers' collapse, at 10:05 and 10:30 AM respectively. The tragedy sent shock waves through American culture not felt since the equally public tragedy of the explosion of the space shuttle Challenger in 1986. To be sure, the September 11 terrorist attacks were preceded by other anxiety-producing terrorist events: previous acts such as the 1985 Achille Lauro hijacking and the 1988 terrorist bombing of Pan Am 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland had inspired previous cycles of disaster humor. However, neither the first terrorist bombing at the World Trade Center in 1993 nor the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 had the international impact of the new attacks.

  • Humor, Unlaughter, and Boundary Maintenance
    Moira Smith Humor, Unlaughter, and Boundary Maintenance Some joke performances are meant to elicit differential responses—laughter from some, and unlaughter from salient others—and so serve as powerful methods for heightening group boundaries. This article illustrates this thesis by analyzing au- dience responses to practical jokes and to the Muhammad cartoons that aroused worldwide controversy in 2006. To further make this case, I will delineate a theo- ry of the audience for humor. Such a theory has heretofore been largely missing from both folklore and humor scholarship; instead, the lion’s share of scholarly attention has gone to the performers, with the audience’s role taken for granted. In boundary-heightening humor, the audience response is the subject of special attention, and it is interpreted in terms of contemporary notions about the impor- tance of having a sense of humor and especially of being able to laugh at oneself. Jokes and humor have attracted a fair amount of serious attention by folklorists, but outside of our field these topics are often easily dismissed as trivial and insignificant. However, in January and February of 2006, a series of cartoons published in a Dan- ish newspaper sparked an enormous international furor that was anything but in- consequential. Diplomats were recalled and Danish products were boycotted in sev- eral countries. Thousands demonstrated in protests around the globe, some of which turned into violent riots that left buildings burned and protestors dead and injured. If ever we needed proof that humor is not a trivial matter, this grim series of events was it.
