Definitions: –“A literary composition modeled on and imitating another work” (Oxford English Dictionary). –“A humorous or satirical imitation of a serious piece of literature or writing” (dictionary.com). –To copy the expressions, ideas, moves, mannerisms, of another in an exaggerating, funny, or mocking way. In modern times, the word parody has come to mean something closer to a spoof and can be found in all artistic genres. Many of them are as popular, if not more so, than the subject they are based on.

Hyperbole – to grossly exaggerate some component(s) of a work. Literalization –to take the figurative language of a work and portray it literally. Incongruity –to take some component(s) of a work and set them out of place. Burlesque – to create humor by caricaturing the manner or spirit of serious works, or by ludicrous treatment of their subjects. Reversal –causing humor by changing an expected outcome or situation.

There is a slight difference between the idea of a parody and that of a satire. A satire is typically politically charged, and written for the purpose of promoting change. Example: "A Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift. A parody, however, tends to show respect for the source that it is imitating.

“The use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of the words’ literal meaning.” Situational – When the opposite of what is expected to happen, happens. Verbal – When a speaker intends to be understood as meaning something that contrasts with the literal or usual meaning of what he or she says. Dramatic –When the reader or audience is aware of something that the characters are not, thus creating suspense.

Burlesque - a literary, dramatic or musical work intended to cause laughter by caricaturing the manner or spirit of serious works, or by ludicrous treatment of their subjects Example: Stewie from “Family Guy.” Lampoon- Publicly criticize (someone or something) by using ridicule, irony, or sarcasm Sarcasm – The use of irony to mock or convey contempt Spoof – A humorous imitation of something, typically a film or a particular genre of film, in which its characteristic features are exaggerated for comic effect Double entendre- A word or phrase open to two interpretations, one of which is usually risqué or indecent Juxtaposition –an act of placing two or more things close together or side by side, especially for comparison or contrast.
