– Weekly Horoscopes Aries: This week you'll prove that one man can make a difference when you smear bacon grease all over the stairs and escalators at the malls closest to the retirement home. Taurus: Trouble rears its ugly head in the workplace when, simply put, they just up and fire everybody. Gemini: Sorry to tell you this, but there's no such thing as "plus-sized" deodorant soap. Just use as much regular soap as you need to wash your enormous frame. Cancer: Yes, you have a powerful thirst, but you won't relieve it by repeatedly drinking whiskey. In fact, that will actually dehydrate you further. Leo: The doctors will be polite and professional when discussing your condition, but they'll joke about it later in the lounge before going home to stare at the ceiling, unable to sleep from thinking about it. Virgo: There will be no changes of note in your life this week, which is surprising considering how easy it should be to get a bear trap off your head these days. Libra: There aren't many out there who can have so many dates without enjoying themselves in the least, but you always knew you were special. Scorpio: You'll try to play both sides against each other for personal gain, proving again why you are the worst chess player ever. Sagittarius: Your love for The Wizard Of Oz will actually come in handy when you're involved in a multiple-tractor-trailer pileup, but not for the reasons you'd think. Capricorn: Strange, it seemed like having a harpoon gun around would be kind of cool, but every time you've used the darn thing it just leads to a lot of flensing work. Aquarius: Usually, compromise means no one everyone is happy. The Missouri Compromise, however, is a great name for the mullet, a hairstyle that makes everyone happy. Pisces: It's never too late to change your life for the better, except of course in your case, where it's almost too late to finish your poisoned coffee.

What similarities do you see in all 5 examples? What literary elements do you recognize?

Introduction to Satire

The Art of Indirect Persuasion  If you’ve ever enjoyed watching late-night comedy shows, you know how effective and fun this approach can be when it comes to changing perception of the subjects being lampooned.  In the second half of this unit, you’ll immerse yourself in the art of satire, exploring how writers use a range of genres and techniques, including parody, to present their messages in indirect ways.

The Art of Indirect Persuasion  Additionally, you’ll explore how diction and syntax can be used to create humor as well as a wide range of satirical tones.  Finally, you’ll explore how satirists manipulate and parody the conventions and content of other formats and genres to advance their purposes as writers.

Objective Identify humor and reason authors use humor Identify and analyze elements of satire and how those elements contribute to tone

Satire  Satire is a literary genre that uses irony, wit, and sometimes sarcasm to expose humanity’s vices and foibles, giving impetus, or momentum, to change or reform 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 specifically use humor to convey a serious message.

Satire

Types of Direct Satire  Horatian satire is a type of direct satire which pokes fun at human foibles with a witty even indulgent tone.  Juvenalian satire is a type of direct satire which denounces, sometimes with invective, human vice and error in dignified and solemn tones.

Horatian Satire  This type of satire is named after the Roman satirist Horatian.  It seeks to criticize, rather than attack, immorality or stupidity.  In general, Horatian satire is gentler, more sympathetic, and more tolerant of human folly.  Unlike Juvenalian satire, it serves to make us laugh at human folly as opposed to holding our failures up for needling.  Horatian satire tends to ridicule human folly in general or by type rather than attack specific persons.  It tends to produce a smile.

Horatian Satire

Juvenalian Satire  This type of satire is named after the Roman satirist Juvenal.  It is harsher than Horatian satire because it often attacks and shows contempt for people.  Often, it seeks to address some evil in society through scorn and ridicule.  The Juvenalian satirist approaches his work in a more serious manner and uses dignified language to attack erroneous thinking or vice.  In this way Juvenalian satire evokes feelings of scorn, shock, and righteous indignation in the mind of the reader.

Juvenalian Satire

Characteristics of Satiric Writing  The following slides describe the various characteristics that often appear in satiric writing.  As you read the literature in the remainder of this unit, your goal will be to identify and analyze these characteristics and their effect on the various texts.

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  When a text intended to be ironic does not seen as such, the effect can be disastrous.  To be an effective piece of sustained irony, there must be some sort of audience tip- off, through style, tone, use of clear exaggeration, or other device.

Irony

Hyperbole  Hyperbole is deliberate exaggeration to achieve an effect; overstatement.

Litotes  Litotes are 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  A caricature is 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.

Caricature

Wit  Wit is 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  Sarcasm is 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.

Sarcasm

Ridicule  Ridicule is 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  A parody is 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-  An imitation of an author’s work using ridicule  “Amish Paradise” Weird Al Yankovic

Invective  Invective is speech or writing that abuses, denounces, or attacks. It can be directed against a person, cause, idea, or system.  It employs a heavy use of negative emotive language.  For Example: “I cannot but conclude the bulk of your natives to be the most pernicious race of little odious vermin that nature ever suffered to crawl upon the surface of the earth.” (Swift, Gulliver’s Travels)

Invective

 Watch the following video:  As you watch, jot down all of the various characteristics of satire you see in the video.  Then, determine whether the video is Horatian or Juvenalian satire and write a sentence or two explaining why.

Apply It!  Read “Let’s Hear it for the Cheerleaders,” the satiric piece on pages in your SpringBoard books.  As you read, mark the text for areas you find funny.  Then, fill out the charts on pages , quoting passages you found funny, explaining why you thought each was funny, and interpreting what each quote is saying.  Determine which terms from our lesson best fit the examples of humor you identified on your chart.  Finally, respond to the following prompt in a five sentence minimum paragraph:  How does David Bouchier’s article fit the definition of satire? Support your answer with specific evidence from the text.
