The volume presents a collection of studies by internationally acknowledged medievalists on the phenomenon of laughter and its literary, social and emotional functions in the Middle Ages. The papers investigate the forms and representations of laughter in medieval literature and society and inquire into its role in the creation of communities and the depiction of figures in fictional texts.

Die Herausgeber kooperieren im Berliner Sonderforschungsbereich 447 "Kulturen des Performativen" in einem Projekt zum Lachen in Mittelalter und Früher Neuzeit.

Werner Röcke ist Professor für Literatur des Spätmittelalters und der Frühen Neuzeit, Hans Rudolf Velten ist Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Institut für deutsche Literatur, beide an der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.
