Description

A COMPANION TO SATIRE A COMPANION TO SATIRE “This book forms a substantial contribution to literary studies and is likely to be the standard work on the subject for a decade or two …. The chapters are densely detailed, the vocabulary elevated.” Reference Reviews “This sturdy volume should be of use to a variety of readers from advanced undergraduates to scholars seeking refresher (or crash) courses on either major” Studies in English Literature 1500-1900 “Offering a valuable contribution to the critical study of satire, Quintero has assembled insightful essays by an impressive roster of scholars...This book serves as a cogent, instructive overview of satire.” Choice “This book obviously brings to readers a dazzling variety of topics relating to satire. There is a rich abundance of material here, surely something for everyone. Indeed, the quality of these essays is uniformly high.” Notes and Queries This collection of twenty-nine original essays surveys satire from its emergence in Western literature to the present. The Companion is extraordinary in its historical scope, tracking satire from its first appearances in the prophetic books of the Old Testament through the Renaissance and the English tradition in satire to Michael Moore’s satirical movie Fahrenheit 9/11. While many essays explore literary developments in satire from an historical view, other essays reflect directly on topics such as irony and satire, modes of satirical mockery, the mock-biblical, and the character sketch. All of the contributors are experts published in their field, and all are experienced teachers who can treat complex and rich subjects with insight and clarity. Contributors to this volume: Joseph F. Bartolomeo, W. Scott Blanchard, Frank Boyle, Peter Brier, Valentine Cunningham, Edwin M. Duval, James Engell, Alberta Gatti, Russell Goulbourne, Dustin Griffin, Christopher J. Herr, Thomas Jemielity, Ejner J. Jensen, Steven E. Jones, Claudia Thomas Kairoff, Catherine Keane, Laura Kendrick, José Lanters, Jean I. Marsden, Linda A.
