First published in 1972, this book provides a helpful introduction
to burlesque literature, a term used by critics from the
seventh-century onwards to describe work in which an incongruity
between serious subject-matter and style is used to provoke
laughter. It examines the four main types of burlesque writing:
Travesty, Hudibrastic, Parody and the Mock-Poem, as well as
dramatic burlesques.
