Birth from the Calf of the Leg. Illustration by Aubrey Beardsley intended for the 1894 edition of Lucian’s The True History (2 nd century BCE)

irony: (verbal, as opposed to dramatic or structural) a rhetorical device in which the speaker’s intended meaning is opposite to that which is stated

parody: “the imitative use of the words, style, attitude, tone and ideas of an author in such a way as to make them ridiculous” (Cuddon)

Menippean satire: satire characterized by its loose mixture of genres, styles, and voices  indirect satire through narrative  voyage in an upside-down world  multiple targets  characters are ridiculous mouthpieces for various ideological or political positions

Illustration by Gustave Doré

I have ever hated all nations, professions, and communities, and all my love is towards individuals; for instance, I hate the tribe of lawyers, but I love Counsellor such-a-one, Judge such-a-one; so with physicians (I will not speak of my own trade), soldiers, English, Scotch, French; and the rest. But principally I hate and detest that animal called man, although I heartily love John, Peter, Thomas and so forth. This is the system upon which I have governed myself many years (but do not tell) and so I shall go on till I have done with them. —Jonathan Swift in a letter to Alexander Pope in 1725
