Satiric boundaries. Imagination's Cerberus -- Satiric nationalism -- Satiric exile -- Pt 2. Satiric forms. Satire as performance -- Horatian performances -- Satire and the novel -- Satire and the press : the Battle of Dunkirk -- White snow and black magic : Karl Kraus and the press.The Literature of Satire is an accessible but sophisticated and wide-ranging study of satire from the classics to the present in plays, novels and the press as well as in verse. In it Charles Knight analyses the rhetorical problems created by satire's complex relations to its community, and examines how it exploits the genres it borrows. He argues that satire derives from an awareness of the differences between appearance, ideas and discourse. Knight provides illuminating readings of such satirists familiar and unfamiliar as Horace, Lucian, Jonson, Molière, Swift, Pope, Byron, Flaubert, Ostrovsky, Kundera, and Rushdie. This broad-ranging examination sheds light on the nature and functions of satire as a mode of writing, as well as on theoretical approaches to it. It will be of interest to scholars interested in literary theory as well as those specifically interested in satire.SatireHistory and criticismSatireHistory and criticism.809.7Knight Charles A.1049132UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910457709403321The literature of satire2477871UNINA
