We are pleased to announce the fifth publication from our special issue on Aesthetic Education and Screen Stories! This time, we feature “Cringe Overhang: The Perlocutionary Effects of Cringe Comedy” by Alexander Sparrow.
In Cringe Overhang, Alexander Sparrow examines cringe comedy, exploring why some laugh and others squirm. Through second-hand embarrassment and audience connection, he unpacks what makes this genre so polarizing.
