Title Jewish jokes, anti-Semitic jokes and Hebredonian jokes.
Original Library/publisher Jewish Humor. Ed.: Avner Ziv. Tel-Aviv: Papyrus, Tel-Aviv University, 1986
Host Item Jewish Humor (1986) 75-96
Description Distinguishes between three types of Jewish jokes: jokes told by Jews about themselves, antisemitic jokes, and "Hebredonian" jokes which reflect the stereotype of the Jew as "canny" (shrewd and thrifty). Though sometimes critical of Jews, the latter are not linked to an organized ideology or prejudice against Jews. Analyzes themes commonly found in Jewish jokes, such as the stereotype of Jewish cleverness employed to outwit antisemites. Using criteria of "congruence" and "switching", defines antisemitic jokes as those congruent with antisemitic ideology and propaganda, portraying the Jew as a swindler, disloyal to the host country, cowardly, and destructive. These jokes can also be switched and applied to other persecuted minorities.
