The German majority society and its largest labour migrant community have been asking for decades what it means to be German and what it means for Turkish Germans, Muslims of the second and third generations, to call Germany their home. Benjamin Nickl examines through the social pragmatics of humour the dynamics that underpin these questions in the still-evolving popular culture space of German mainstream humour in the 21st century. The first book-length study on the topic to combine close readings of film, television, literary and online comedy, and transnational culture studies, Turkish German Muslims and Comedy Entertainment presents the argument that Turkish German humour has moved from margin to mainstream by intervening in cultural incompatibility and Islamophobia discourse.Current Issues in IslamPerforming Arts / ComedybisacshSocial Science / Islamic StudiesbisacshHumor / Topic / Regional & CulturalbisacshSocial sciencesPerforming Arts / ComedySocial Science / Islamic StudiesHumor / Topic / Regional & CulturalSocial sciences.Nickl Benjamin983887ScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910917282503321Turkish German muslims and comedy entertainment2246310UNINA
