Popis In recent years, there has been an increased interest in the research of humour in diverse communicative contexts, marking a clear shift of focus from the referential or cognitive properties of language to the interpersonal dimension of communication, as well as to language play and creativity (Attardo 2017, Vásquez 2019). Against the background of the traditional approaches to the study of humour, the talk argues for the need to adopt an explicit socio-pragmatic perspective (e.g. Tsakona and Chovanec 2023) in order to explain some of the forms and functions of this phenomenon in modern mediated contexts. The talk discusses some recent humorous data collected from various domains of public discourse to show how humour is present in the modern hybrid media environment (Koivukoski 2022), and how memetic humorous content (Shifman 2014, Wiggins 2019) flows between the social and public media spheres, particularly in relation to domestic and international conflicts.
