7. Devices of Satire
Burlesque – A ridiculous, distorted exaggeration. An example is when a character who should use formal, intelligent language speaks like a fool or a character who is portrayed as uneducated uses highly sophisticated, intelligent language.

8. More on Burlesque
A serious subject may be treated frivolously or a frivolous subject seriously.  The essential quality that makes for burlesque is the discrepancy between subject matter and style.  That is, a style ordinarily dignified may be used for nonsensical matter, or a style very nonsensical may be used to ridicule a weighty subject.

9. Devices of Satire
Reductio ad absurdum – Author appears to agree with attitudes or assumptions he wishes to satirize; by pushing to logically ridiculous extreme, the author exposes the foolishness of the object of the satire. In other words, you adopt the position opposite of what you want to prove and show that it produces a false conclusion.

10. Devices of Satire
Ambiguity – makes satiric comparison sharper by making vague distinction between the target and the object to which it is compared.
