An Evening With Stephen Leacock “Whenever I go into a bank, I get rattled. The clerks rattle me, the wickets rattle me. The sound of money rattles me. Everything rattles me. The moment I cross the threshold of a bank and attempt to do any business there, I become an irresponsible idiot.” That’s it. Now I was about to ut down the cororate structure. Big business. Even the Russians liked this story and printed it in their humorous magazine as an example of a decadent western capitalism. I finished that sketch and they love it. Then I told them I was an anarchistic polygamist, opposed to all forms of government, objected to any kind of revealed religion, and that the state, property and marriage was a tyranny of the bourgeoisie. Now they knew where I stood. I breezed through one sketch after another. Placing my pauses, emphasis and accents, just as Leacock had done. I had listened to his recordings from the CBC radio archives in Toronto and had thoroughly steeped myself in his vocal intonations, remembering to build each sketch to its proper climax and punch line. Before I know it the bell rang. I looked at my watch. “Most students tire of a lecture in about....five minutes. Clever students do it in three. Others never go to a lecture.” The gave me a thunderous applause. I bowed and told them to leave their dollar at the door as they passed out. An indescribable feeling of exhilaration went through me as I stepped back from the lectern and made my exit. Yes. This was going to be my life’s work. Portraying Stephen Leacock to the world.

Gerald Lynch offers new insights into the work of a popular Canadian humourist in Stephen Leacock: Humour and Humanity. He considers Leacock's satire to be the result of a combination of two traditions - toryism and humanism - and examines the relation between Leacock's theory of humour and his view of the world.

The author of "The Unsolved Riddle of Social Justice," Stephen Leacock, was most famous as one of Canada's leading early 20th-century humorists. Yet, he was a professor of economics and political science at McGill University in Montreal too. In this book, he mixes his well-known humor with his deep expertise in economics and politics to examine the eternal economic and social justice questions. He addresses the problems in both systems of socialism and capitalism, pointing out the strong and weak sides of both. Although the book was printed more than a century ago, the thoughts and approaches published in it are very modern and can be used to assess today's political and economic state.
