SUMMARY:The Roots and Branches of Jewish Comedy
DESCRIPTION:Where are the roots of Jewish comedy? What makes a joke Jewish? The Bible has comedy and jokes – not much\, but who’s counting?  The Talmud and early Rabbinic literature grew a special brand of Jewish humour\, as has our experience of Diaspora. Throw in some history\, the festival of Purim\, struggle\, persecution\, poverty\, Rabbinic discourse and a fear of assimilation\, and we find a rich culture of Jewish humour which everybody loves\, we hope. And if they don’t\, we will make a joke about that too. Before anyone else does…. \nMaureen Kendler is a Teaching Fellow at the London School of Jewish Studies and has degrees in English Literature and Jewish Education. She is a dedicated Limmudnik and teaches there and internationally on a wide variety of Jewish texts\, ancient and modern. She broadcasts regularly on BBC Radio 2 “Pause For Thought” and contributes to the Jewish Chronicle “Thought For the Week” column. \n  \nShare this:Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window)
