Özet:

 


This article aims to study
 the issue of laughter, which has yet not been sufficiently discussed in
 terms of philosophy and to analyze the content and context of the funny
 thing. Views of great philosophers such as Plato, Aristoteles, Bergson 
and Hegel, about laughter, will be studied to find out whether comedy, 
which seems to have belonged to the lower social class throughout the 
history, can be considered as a form of social opposition regarding 
political philosophy. The social and connecting dimension of laughter 
will be discussed within the framework of Bergson’s views and it will be
 noted that laughing together can only be possible on a social and 
historical ground of consensus. It will be stated that laughter can have
 a connecting and transforming power only if the historical and social 
contexts are properly evaluated.
