 You need one quote from STAR people and one quote from last night’s reading.  Look on pages 87, 91, 97, 99, 104 for moments of change in Huck Finn

Definition of Satire media that points out weaknesses, errors, incongruities and/ or wrong-doings of individuals, groups, or humanity. Although satire often points out these weaknesses, etc.in a playful, humorous, manner, it is meant to reform.

Humor and Message?

Types of Satire  Horatian satire is: tolerant, witty, wise and self-effacing  Juvenalian satire is: angry, caustic, resentful, personal MAKE A CASE: WHAT IS HUCK FINN? EXPLAIN.

Satiric Devices  Absurdity : something that seems like it would never happen, but could.  Exaggeration or overstatement : something that does happen, but is exaggerated to absurd lengths. This is the most common type of satire. For example, a caricature.  Understatement : a statement that seems incomplete or less than truthful given the facts. Think sarcasm with the intentions of evoking change. For example, if a student frequently forgot his homework and I replied, “It’s okay, you never forget.”  Parody: a mocking imitation, often of a literary work. “Shrek” is a parody of a fairytale.

More Devices  Wit or word play : the title The Importance of Being Earnest. It is a play on the word “earnest”, meaning honest, and the name “Earnest”.  Euphemism: the substitution of an inoffensive term for one that is offensive. For example, replacing “die” with “pass away”.  Irony: conveying the opposite of what is expected.
