Polazeći od različitih definicija crnog humora, rad preispituje ovaj kom-
pleksni fenomen i njegovo folklorno poreklo u grčkoj antici. Kroz prizmu teorija Olge
Frejdenberg i Mihaela Bahtina, parodija tj. karneval se uspostavljaju kao pogled na svet
suprotan ali i paralelan ozbiljnom, oficijelnom i hijerarhijskom poretku. Upravo takva
slika sveta, kroz suočavanje sa smrću, generiše u antičkoj Grčkoj pojavu pozorišta i žanr
komedije koji se mogu smatrati pretečom crnohumornih filmskih komedija. Ukazavši
na isprepletanost smeha i smrti, kao i postojanje crnog humora u narodnoj kulturi grčke
antike, zanimljivu vezu između savremenih crnih komedija i srpske narodne kulture
predstavljaju izvođačko-predstavljačke obredne igre sa prizorima smrti i oživljavanja.
Motive i atmosferu ovih igara lako je prepoznati u domaćim filmskim crnim komedija
ma, a kao primer analize tj. studija slučaja uzima se film Maratonci trče počasni krug.
The paper is dealing with the complex phenomenon of black humor. Start
ing from different definitions about its origin, the author questions its folklore
origin in Greek antiquity. Through the prism of the theories of Olga Freidneberg
and Michael Bakhtin, parody and/or carneval appear as a worldview contrary
and at the same time parallel to the serious, official, hierarchical order. Exactly
this image of the world, and conceptualization of death on its grounds, lead in
ancient Greece to the appearance of the theatre and comedy, that is regarded to
be the predecessor of black film comedies. Pointing out the intertwinement of
laughter and death, as well as the existence of black humor in the Greek antiq
uity, the author also deals with interesting connection between film black com
edies and Serbian performative ritual games with motives of death and the dead.Such motives and the atmosphere that they provoke are easily recognized in the
Serbian black comedies. As an example, i....e. a case study is taken the film Mara
thon Family. Apart from that, the paper offers an insight into the theoretical ap
proaches to the phenomenon of black humor in literature and film, which opens
the space to trace two more intertwined paths of influence on the mentioned
black comedies. One path is literary and goes back to comedies by Branislav
Nušić – The bereaved family and The deceased, while the other leads to the
whole genre of films with the dark humour that has developed since the 1960s
in Europe and the USA. In spite of the undoubtable influences, the short insight
into the subgenres of dark humour in the mentioned films reveals the specificity
of the black humor in the Serbian cinematography that might be related to folk
humoristic games with the motive of death.
En prenant pour point de départ les différentes définitions de l’humour noir,
l’article réexamine ce phénomène complexe et son origine folklorique dans
l’Antiquité grecque. À travers le prisme des théories d’Olga Freidenberg et de
Mikhaïl Bakhtine, la parodie, c’est-à-dire le carnaval s’instaure comme une vi
sion du monde contraire mais à la fois parallèle à l’ordre sérieux, officiel et
hiérarchique. C’est exactement cette vision du monde là, à travers sa confronta
tion avec la mort, qui génère dans la Grèce antique l’apparition du théâtre et du
genre de la comédie qui peuvent être considérés comme ancêtres des comédies
cinématographiques d’humour noir. Après avoir rendu compte de l’entremêle
ment du rire et de la mort, ainsi que de l’existence de l’humour noir dans la
culture populaire de l’Antiquité grecque, il s’agit de montrer un lien intéres
sant existant entre les comédies contemporaines noires et la culture populaire
serbe sous forme des danses rituelles accompagnées... des spectacles de la mort
et de la ranimation. Les motifs et l’atmosphère de ces danses sont facilement
reconnaissables dans les comédies cinématographiques noires serbes, et c’est
à titre d’exemple qu’a été analysé le film Les marathoniens courent leur tour
d’honneur.
