With regard to the "cognitive construal” of human experience as one of the basic notions of CL, this paper describes for three types of humorous texts in what ways construal operations are exploited, combined, and embedded in humorous discourse, as well as the way in which they relate to the achievement of humorous effects. It is demonstrated, accordingly, that CL contributes to a holistic account of humor as a highly marked and complex, yet structurally not irregular kind of language use. In this respect, this contribution is particularly critical about the category of Logical Mechanisms, defined in the GTVH as humor-specific operations that guide the process of incongruity resolution in humor interpretation. Instead, the present account advocates a prototype model of construal operations, in which incongruity and resolution appear as two perspectives of the same cognitive construal. © Walter de Gruyter Sociolinguistics nationallicence Anthropology nationallicence Cognitive linguistics nationallicence incongruity-resolution models nationallicence construal operations nationallicence logical mechanisms nationallicence prototype theory nationallicence Brône Geert University of Leuven, Belgium. aut Feyaerts Kurt University of Leuven, Belgium. aut Humor - International Journal of Humor Research Walter de Gruyter 17/4(2004-09-23), 361-372 0933-1719 17:4<361 2004 17 humr https://doi.org/10.1515/humr.2004.17.4.361 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1515/humr.2004.17.4.361 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Brône Geert University of Leuven, Belgium aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Feyaerts Kurt University of Leuven, Belgium aut NATIONALLICENCE 773 0- Humor - International Journal of Humor Research Walter de Gruyter 17/4(2004-09-23), 361-372 0933-1719 17:4<361 2004 17 humr CC0 http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0 nationallicence BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-gruyter
