Lippitt

The article Humor and Incongruity by John Lippitt takes a deeper dive into the concept of incongruity by analyzing different author's interpretation of the concept and its application to humor and why people find jokes humorous. By explaining and analyzing multiple definitions of the same concept, the author is able to develop a broad definition to compare to other theories and real world examples.
This is a well put way to ensure the audience can follow both the concept of the theory, and the application of the theory, which is helpful.
