Literary Terms: Satire

Satire A literary work that ridicules (makes fun of) its subject in order to make a comment or criticism about it

Four Techniques to Satire Exaggeration Incongruity Reversal Parody

Exaggeration To enlarge, increase or represent something beyond normal bounds so that it becomes ridiculous and its faults can be seen

Incongruity To present things that are out of place or are absurd in relation to its surroundings

Reversal To present the opposite of the normal order (the order of events, hierarchical order, etc.)

Parody To imitate the techniques and/or style of some person, place, or thing.

Examples-- “Shrek” Exaggeration: To enlarge, increase or represent something beyond normal bounds so that it becomes ridiculous and its faults can be seen Princess Fiona fights and defeats Robin Hood and all of his Merry Men without help or weapons.

Examples-- “Shrek” Incongruity: To present things that are out of place or are absurd in relation to its surroundings Princess Fiona uses her ponytail to deliver a knockout punch to one of the Merry Men. While frozen in a mid-air martial arts kick, Fiona pauses to fix her messy hair before knocking out two of the Merry Men.

Examples-- “Shrek” Reversal: To present the opposite of the normal order (the order of events, hierarchical order, etc.) The roles of the hero and damsel in distress have been reversed. In this clip, it is Princess Fiona, the rescuee, who fights and defeats the foe.

Examples-- “Shrek” Parody: To imitate the techniques and/or style of some person, place or thing The fight scene is an exaggerated imitation of the martial arts style and special effects used in movies such as The Matrix and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

Other Examples? “The Simpsons” The Onion Austin Powers Weird Al Yankovich Saturday Night Live Mad TV South Park
