This volume addresses the teaching of satire written in English
over the past three hundred years. For instructors covering current
satire, it will help in finding ways to enrich students'
understanding of voice, irony, and rhetoric and to explore the
questions of how to define satire and how to determine what its
ultimate aims are. For instructors teaching older satire, the
essays in the volume will demonstrate ways to help students gain
knowledge of historical context, medium, and audience, while
addressing more specific literary questions of technique and form.
Readers of this volume will find ways to introduce students to
authors such as Swift and Twain, to techniques such as parody and
verbal irony, and to the difficult subject of satire's
offensiveness and elitism. This volume also helps teachers of a
wide variety of courses, from composition to gateway courses and
surveys, think about how to use modern satire in conceiving and
structuring them.
