Satire and Politics : The Interplay of Heritage and Practice Hardback
Edited by Jessica Milner Davis
Part of the Palgrave Studies in Comedy series
Hardback
Description
This book examines the multi-media explosion of contemporary political satire.
Rooted in 18th century Augustan practice, satire’s indelible link with politics underlies today’s universal disgust with the ways of elected politicians.
This study interrogates the impact of British and American satirical media on political life, with a special focus on political cartoons and the levelling humour of Australasian satirists.
