Folklore Fights the Nazis: Humor in Occupied Norway, 1940-45
University of Wisconsin Press
During the German occupation of Norway during World War II, the Norwegians kept spirits high and fostered resistance by humour. The author examines how this seemingly frivolous humour in fact contributed to the development of a resistance mentality in a country stunned by the German invasion.
