SATIRE An attack on or criticism of any stupidity or vice by using scathing humor; a critique on a religious, political, moral, or social standard that the author sees as dangerous. Ridicule, irony, and exaggeration are tools almost always used in satire. Artists try to correct folly by using art as a mirror to reflect society; thus, we see our faults magnified in a distorted reflection and how ridiculous our behavior is. We are inspired to then correct that hideous tendency in ourselves. The tradition of satire started in the 1600s and continues to today. Popular cartoons such as The Simpsons and televised comedies like The Daily Show make use of it in modern media. Formal satire involves a direct, first-person-address, either to the audience or to a listener mentioned within the work—such as Miller’s ACT 1 commentary in The Crucible. Indirect satire conventionally employs the form of a fictional narrative—such as Swift's Gulliver's Travels or Miller’s The Crucible
