While there is a wealth of material concerning human emotions related to humour and the mindful management of negative emotions, very little has been written on the theory of Buddhist humour. Uniting both Buddhist and Western philosophy, the author draws upon the theory of ?incongruity humour?, espoused by figures such as Kierkegaard, Kant and Hegel and absorbed into the interpretation of humour by the Buddhist monk and former Western philosopher, Ñ??av?ra Thero. The author makes extensive use of rich primary sources such as the parables used by Ajahn Brahm while interweaving Western theories and philosophies to illuminate this original study of humour and emotion. This pioneering work will be of interest and value to students and scholars of humour, Buddhist traditions and existentialism more widely. . 606 $aEmotions 606 $aPersonality 606 $aDifference (Psychology) 606 $aBuddhism 606 $aPhilosophy, Modern 606 $aPsychology 606 $aEmotion 606 $aPersonality and Differential Psychology 606 $aBuddhism 606 $aPhilosophical Traditions 606 $aBehavioral Sciences and Psychology 615 0$aEmotions. 615 0$aPersonality. 615 0$aDifference (Psychology) 615 0$aBuddhism. 615 0$aPhilosophy, Modern. 615 0$aPsychology. 615 14$aEmotion. 615 24$aPersonality and Differential Psychology. 615 24$aBuddhism. 615 24$aPhilosophical Traditions. 615 24$aBehavioral Sciences and Psychology. 676 $a294.3422 700 $ade Silva$b Padmasiri$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0766455 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298065903321 996 $aPsychology of Emotions and Humour in Buddhism$91559430 997 $aUNINA
