3. Satire Satire vs. Parody: Parody is an imitation of the style of a particular writer, artist, or genre with deliberate exaggeration for comic effect Satire is the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues A Voyage to Brobdingnag criticizes European religion and government Chapter six attacks politics “He said, he knew no Reason, why those who entertain Opinions prejudicial to the Publick, should be obliged to change, or should not be obliged to conceal them. And, as it was Tyranny in any Government to require the first, so it was Weakness not to enforce the second.” (Swift, 1735, p.92) “He laughed at my odd Kind of Arithmetick” (Swift, 1735, p.92) “I am well disposed to hope you may hitherto have escaped many Vices of your Country.” (Swift, 1735, p. 93)
