Special Publication Sequel
Stagecoach,
John Ford, and Redemption Comedy
The Ukrainian crisis impelled us to publish a first rough draft of an
essay on John Ford’s Stagecoach and Redemption Comedy. Months
later, the need seems more for Reconciliation, and ITCHS is currently
working to provide a definition of a Reconciliation sub-genre of Comedy.
Pending completion of that work, ITCHS now provides a definition of
Romantic Comedy, pressing forward the methodology used for Stagecoach
and Redemption Comedy.

We hope that students of literature, psychology, sociology, and other
disciplines will find useful sources in the e-volumes we publish here.
ITCHS is at its core a collaborative effort. We are proud of thousands
of volunteer associates who have made our research discoveries
possible. And we are constantly looking to increase the number of
scholar affiliates with whom we continue our efforts. If you are a humor
scholar, a comedy scholar, a scholar in a related field like travesty,
satire, or tragedy and especially if you are a graduate student looking
for a dissertation topic and institute affiliation, we want to hear from
you. We are experts in research design and quantitative analysis, and
we are anxious to consider possibilities for collaborative research and
publication.
