Book excerpt: Because satire cannot be fixed in a conventional form or genre, it resists analysis, but as David Worcester demonstrates in this lively and helpful book, satirical literature can be showed to have followed a definite evolution, with complex and sublte forms arising out of simple and primitive ones. Mr. Worcester traces the progression of satire from invective to burlesque and from there to the varied modes of irony. He discusses the various forms satire has taken in English literature, and the motives behind its impetus at different periods in its history, and touches on the possibilities of satire and the uses of irony in literature in our own time. 'The Art of Satire' provides both a historical and critical introduction to the uses of literary satire, and in analyzing the technique of irony clarifies one of the most subtle and powerful principles of literary art.

Book excerpt: Tracking his subject wherever it leads, Test finally locates satire living like a stranger in the basement. Even then it won't be trapped. Defining satire is like trying to put a shadow in a sack, he observes. What he brings upstairs - the fiercest form - is an encylopedic, historical analysis of satire.

Book excerpt: Parody: The Art That Plays with Art explodes the near-universal belief that parody is a copycat genre or that it consists of a collection of trivial and derivative forms. Parody is revealed as an über-technique, a principal source of innovation and invention in the arts. The technique is defined in terms of three major variations that bang, bind, and blend artistic conventions into contrasting pairings, the results of which are upheavals of existing conventions and the formation of unexpected and sometimes startling and revolutionary new configurations. Parodic art fashions a galaxy of contrasts, and from these stem an illusionistic sense of multiplicity and an array of divergent meanings and interpretive paths. This book, an extreme departure from existing analyses of parody, is nonetheless highly accessible and will be of major interest not only to scholars but to general readers and to professional writers as well. Parody: The Art That Plays with Art is particularly suited for readers interested in modernism, postmodernism, meta-art, criticism, satire, and irony.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Offensive Art is an arch and sometimes caustic look at the art of political satire as practiced in democratic, monarchical, and authoritarian societies around the world over the past century-together with the efforts by governmental, religious, and corporate authorities to suppress it by censorship, intimidation, policy, and fatwa. Examples are drawn from the full spectrum of satiric genres, including novels, plays, verse, songs, essays, cartoons, cabarets and revues, movies, television, and the Internet. The multicultural and multimedia breadth and historical depth of Freedman's comparative approach frames his novel assessment of the role of political satire in today's post-9/11 world, and in particular the cross-cultural controversies it generates, such as the global protests against the Jyllands-Posten cartoons. In a tongue-in-cheek style peppered with the world's best one-liners from the last century, The Offensive Art recounts the acrimonious and often perilous cat-and-mouse games between political satirists and their censors and inhibitors through the last century in America (especially FDR, LBJ, Nixon, Reagan, Clinton, and Bush II and in wartime), Britain (especially Churchill, Thatcher, Blair and the Royals), Germany (Hitler to the present), Russia (Stalin to the present), China (Mao to the present), India (from the Raj on), and the Middle East (from 1920s Egypt to today). Freedman focuses on the role and transformation of satire during shifts from authoritarian to democratic systems in such places as South Africa, Argentina, and Eastern Europe. He surveys the state of satire throughout the world today, identifying the most dangerous countries for practitioners of the offensive art, and presents his findings as to the political efficacy of satire in provoking change.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art and Craft of Letters: Satire Of all literary adventurers there is none who more appeals to my temper or lays a larger call upon my sympathy than the satirist, for he is a poet or a soul well-born who has been parlously out of luck. There are men, like Goethe, whose luck is so stupendous as to put them out of the running for the readers comradeship. I have ever been a reader, often devout and whole-hearted, but with the lucky men I can never stay long, and to some, since my boyish prostration, I have never turned again. There are too many stormy places and dark ways in human life upon which their imagination has never cast its light. Shakespeare never had this overwhelming luck; he had always to wrestle with the powers of darkness for his imagination. And he won, and took flight with as many passengers as cared to go with him.

This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that the satire of the late Elizabethan period goes far beyond generic rhetorical persuasion, but is instead intentionally engaged in a literary mission of transideological "perceptual translation." This reshaping of cultural orthodoxies is interpreted in this study as both authentic and "activistic" in the sense that satire represents a purpose-driven attempt to build a consensual community devoted to genuine socio-cultural change. The book includes explorations of specific ideologically stabilizing satires produced before the Bishops' Ban of 1599, as well as the attempt to return nihilistic English satire to a stabilizing theatrical form during the tumultuous end of the reign of Elizabeth I. Dr. Jones infuses carefully chosen, modern-day examples of satire alongside those of the Elizabethan Era, making it a thoughtful, vigorous read.
