Dark humor or black comedy was a term first used by André Breton in 1935. The surrealist theorist was trying to interpret writings and saw how laughter managed to come out of cynical remarks and skeptic views, typically revolving around death. He then used it for his book titled ‘Anthology of Black Humor.’ But whose writings was Breton looking at?

Laurence Sterne’s 1759 novel ‘Tristram Shandy’ with self-mutilation jokes was possibly one of the earliest writings that revolve around black humor. But the history of its existence can be seen in the writings of as far back as ancient Greeks. Did you know that dark humor was also called gallows humor?
