Introduction to Satire, Parody & Irony

The Art of Indirect Persuasion Writers use a range of genres and techniques, including parody, to present their messages in indirect ways.

Satire Satire is a literary genre that uses irony, wit, and sometimes sarcasm to expose humanity’s vices and foibles [= weaknesses, faults, eccentricities, etc.] through ridicule. It is a manner of writing that mixes a critical attitude with wit and humor in an effort to improve mankind and human institutions.

Satire While some writers and commentators use a serious tone to persuade their audiences to accept their perspective on various issues, some writers use humor to convey a serious message.

What is Satire? Though he laughs, the satirist tells the truth Compels readers to look at a sight they missed or shunned - move them to protest Through laughter, aims to cure folly and punish evil

Irony - Irony is a mode of expression, through words (verbal irony) or events (irony of situation), conveying a reality different from and usually opposite to appearance or expectation. - The surprise recognition by the audience often produces a comic effect, making irony often funny.

Irony

Hyperbole - a deliberate exaggeration to achieve an effect; overstatement.

Litotes a form of understatement that involves making an affirmative point by denying its opposite. For Example: “Being tortured with fire must have been somewhat uncomfortable.” “Rap videos with dancers in them are not uncommon.“ “There are a few Starbucks in America."

Caricature an exaggeration or other distortion of an individual's prominent features or characteristics to the point of making that individual appear ridiculous. The term is applied more often to graphic representations than to literary ones.

Forms of Satire Caricature, Exaggeration: - Distortion for emphasis - Usually focuses on powerful subjects - Emphasize physical characteristics in order to make deeper criticism

Caricature

Wit most commonly understood as clever expression, whether aggressive or harmless; that is, with or without derogatory intent toward someone or something in particular. We also tend to think of wit as being characterized by a mocking or paradoxical quality, evoking laughter through apt phrasing.

Wit

Sarcasm intentional derision, generally directed at another person and intended to hurt. The term comes from a Greek word meaning “to tear flesh like dogs” and signifies a cutting remark. Sarcasm usually involves obvious, verbal irony, achieving its effect by jeeringly stating the opposite of what is meant so as to heighten the insult.

Ridicule the use of words intended to belittle a person or idea and arouse contemptuous laughter. The goal is to condemn or criticize by making the thing, idea, or person seem laughable and ridiculous.

Ridicule

Parody an imitation of an author or his/her work with the idea of ridiculing the author, his/her ideas, or the work itself. A parodist exploits the peculiarities of an author’s expression —the propensity to use too many parentheses, certain favorite words, or other elements of the author’s style.

Parody Imitation which, through distortion and exaggeration, evokes amusement, derision, and sometimes scorn Borrows a pre-existing form
