Resumo: The laughter, from a scientific perspective, was the object of interest of theorists from different areas and, currently, it is configured as an almost indispensable factor for coexistence. Among its theorists, the Russian philosopher Mikahail Bakhtin stands out, who understood laughter from the carnival show, exemplified in the Middle Ages and Renaissance popular culture. From this perspective, carnival – as a condition for the existence of laughter – takes on different nuances involving festivities, language, and literary works. In a bibliographical approach, the present work relates Bakhtin’s theorization with documentary research on humor undertaken in all of Osho’s books available at OSHO Online Library. One of the expressions of Bakhtian carnivalization can be identified, for example, in the discursive proposal and in the religious content promulgated by Osho, who not only applies a humorous format to his religious discourse but proclaims humor as the essential expression of the sacred.

Entre seus teóricos, desponta o filósofo russo Mikahail Bakhtin, que entendia o riso a partir do espetáculo carnavalesco, exemplificado na cultura popular da Idade Média e Renascimento. Dessa perspectiva, o carnaval – como condição para a existência do riso – toma diversos matizes, envolvendo festividades, linguajado e obras literárias. O presente trabalho relaciona, em abordagem bibliográfica, a teorização de Bakhtin com pesquisa documental sobre humor empreendida em todos os livros de Osho disponíveis na OSHO Online Library. Uma das expressões da carnavalização bakhtiniana pode ser identificada, por exemplo, na proposta discursiva e no conteúdo religioso promulgado por Osho, que não apenas aplica um formato humorístico ao seu discurso religioso, mas apregoa o humor como a expressão essencial do sagrado.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2023-07-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/rever/article/view/6039610.23925/1677-1222.2023vol23i1a10REVER: Journal for the Study of Religion; Vol. 23 No. 1 (2023): Religion and humor; 151-171REVER: Revista de Estudos da Religião; v. 23 n. 1 (2023): Religião e humor; 151-1711677-122210.23925/1677-1222.2023vol23i1reponame:Rever (São Paulo.
